How to survive the flight to Tarakan?
Wherever you’re jetting in from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you’ve prepared well enough. Take a peek at these essential travel tips that will get your Tarakan escape started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The secret to having a pain-free travel experience is to pack in advance. So, let’s start with the basics: passport, travel docs, cash and important medications. Next, take on board items that’ll help keep you busy, like some electronic gadgets or a thrilling novel. It’s also smart to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones. And of course, be sure to pop in toiletries like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a clean T-shirt.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Double-check that you don’t have sharp or pointed objects lurking in one of the zippers of your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive substances, such as fuel and matches, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

  • The answer to a comfortable flight is often as simple as your choice of clothes. Prepare yourself for varying temperatures by bringing layers. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin gets too cold. Shoes like stilettos, flip flops and lace-up boots are best left in your checked suitcase. Instead, go for flat, closed-toed footwear like sneakers. Your feet will appreciate it.
  • Unfortunately, a risk of flying long-haul is developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by extended periods of inactivity. To prevent this, make the most of every opportunity to wander around the cabin. Compression tights and socks are another easy way to help reduce this risk.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Tarakan?
The answer is — be prepared. We’ve pulled together some helpful hints for an easy trip through security. Look out Tarakan, here you come:

  • Be sure to have your passport and travel documents within easy reach. They’re the first items you’ll be asked to present to airport security.
  • After that, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that might trigger the alarms. Personal belongings like your coat, belt and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
  • For just a few minutes, you’ll have to unplug from technology. Your phone, tablet and any other electronics must also be sent through the scanner.
  • Remove all liquids and gels from your hand luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
  • Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several precious minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Lightweight sneakers usually aren’t.
  • Airlines will not allow any sharp objects in the cabin. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked baggage.
