Do you have any tips for my flight to Nuuk?
Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you prepare well enough. Take a peek at these essential travel tips that will get your Nuuk vacation started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • A plane trip can be a pleasure if you pack the right things. Firstly, you'll want some toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a fresh set of clothes and a good novel. Secondly, find a spot in your bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, your important medications and perhaps a blow-up neck pillow as well. Lastly, remember to take your passport, travel papers and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of banned items can differ between airlines, the general guide to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like tools, metal cutlery, aerosol cans and flares. Sports equipment like golf clubs, and objects that could harm passengers, such as guns and swords, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Go for comfort over style. Prepare for changes in temperature by dressing in layers, and pick closed-toe, flat footwear like sneakers.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to poor circulation, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression tights or socks.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Nuuk?
The trick is to be prepared before you reach the security gate. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Nuuk in the blink of an eye. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a spectacular start:

  • Be sure to have your travel documents and ID at hand. They're the first items you'll be asked for by security.
  • Next up is the X-ray machine. Remove anything on you that is likely to beep. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
  • For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your laptop, phone and any other electronics will need to be sent through the scanner.
  • Remove all liquids and gels from your carry-on bag. They often need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
  • Choosing your footwear wisely can save you valuable minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on sneakers usually aren't.
  • Airlines won't allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in the cabin. If you need to bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked baggage.
