Do you have any tips for my flight to Apia?
Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you're well prepared. We've made a list of handy travel tips that will help get your Apia vacation started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • A plane trip can be a stress-free experience if you've got all the right things. Firstly, you'll want some toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare set of clothes and a magazine or two. Secondly, leave space in your hand luggage for your electronic gadgets, chargers, your important medications and maybe a comfy neck pillow too. Lastly, don't forget to bring your passport, travel papers and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of prohibited items differs between air carriers, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, drills, fireworks and fuel. Sports equipment like hockey sticks, and objects that could harm passengers, such as firearms and swords, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The aisles of a plane aren't the place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfy clothing and go for shoes that are closed-toe, flat and easy to pull on and off.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by extended periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Walk around the cabin and give your legs a stretch or do some gentle exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Apia?
As seasoned travelers know, the secret is to be prepared before you reach the security gate. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Apia in a flash. Follow these helpful tips and get your vacation off to a fantastic start:

  • Airport security personnel first need to establish that you have a valid ID and boarding pass before anything else. Have them close by, ready for inspection.
  • Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your coat, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like your earphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them as your turn draws near.
  • Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go through the machine to be scanned. Don't worry, you'll be back online soon enough.
  • Traveling with a new perfume or cologne? Not a problem. As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-lock bag, you're allowed to bring it with you in your carry-on bag.
  • Lightweight sneakers are a good footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when going through security. Safety boots and other heavy shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
  • Sharp or pointed objects (like knives and scissors) are not allowed on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked suitcase.
