Do you have any tips for my flight to Vaitape?
Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you're prepared. Follow these handy tips that will get your Vaitape vacation started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • First things first, put in your passport, travel docs, wallet and medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling novel and a tablet filled with your favorite shows are always good options. If you plan to catch forty winks, a quality neck pillow and some noise-canceling headphones will also be useful. Finally, squeeze in a toothbrush and some facial wipes to ensure you step off the plane looking and feeling fresh.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of banned items can differ between airlines, the general rule of thumb is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like knives, scissors, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sports equipment like ski poles, and objects that could harm passengers, such as swords and batons, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The aisles of an airplane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfy clothing and pick shoes that are flat, roomy and easy to slip on and off.
  • You've probably heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of sitting. To lessen your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression socks or tights and move your legs and feet often.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Vaitape?
The answer is simple — be organized. We've compiled some useful tips for an easy trip through security. Watch out Vaitape, here you come:

  • Keep your boarding pass and ID easily accessible. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to show at airport security.
  • Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your coat, belt, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your earphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them before your turn.
  • For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic devices will also need to go through the scanner.
  • Can't travel without your favorite perfume or cologne? No problem. As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, you're allowed to bring it with you in your carry-on.
  • Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several valuable minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on sneakers are usually not.
  • Knives and other sharp items are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them safely away in your checked suitcase.
