Do you have any tips for my flight to Ilulissat?
We've pulled together all the info you need to make your journey as enjoyable as possible. Follow our top tips and you'll be zooming through the airport and enjoying Ilulissat in no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The trick to having a stress-free flight experience is to plan ahead. First up, the essentials: passport, travel docs, bank cards and vital medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you occupied, like your laptop or a juicy novel. You'll also want to pack your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Finally, be sure to chuck in toiletries like a toothbrush, deodorant and a fresh change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of banned items can differ between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like tools, metal cutlery, aerosol cans and flares. Sports equipment like golf clubs, and items that could harm passengers, such as firearms and ammunition, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Comfort should be your highest priority when choosing what to wear on your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a wise choice, as are flat, enclosed shoes.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-distance flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to poor circulation, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Ilulissat?
Being organized before you arrive at the airport will help make your trip to Ilulissat easy and painless. We've rounded up some handy tips for a speedy journey through security:

  • Be sure to keep your passport and travel documents easily accessible. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to present to security.
  • Next up, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Personal belongings like your belt, coat and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
  • For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, tablet and any other electronic devices must also be sent through the scanner.
  • Can't travel without your favorite cologne or perfume? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-lock bag, you can keep it with you on board.
  • Lightweight sneakers are a good footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when going through security. Boots and other bulky shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
  • Airlines will not allow any sharp or pointed objects to come on board with you. If you must bring these kinds of items, check them in.
