Do you have any tips for my flight to Kau?
No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you're well prepared. Take a peek at these handy tips that will get your Kau vacation started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • First, pack in your passport, travel docs, cash and medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling book and a tablet filled with your favorite movies are always good options. If you plan to catch a few z's, a quality neck pillow and some noise-canceling headphones will also be useful. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes so you'll touchdown feeling fresh and raring to go.

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 screwdrivers, knives, aerosol cans and flares. Sports equipment like golf clubs, and objects that could injure passengers, such as firearms and ammunition, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The aisles of an airplane aren't the place for a fashion parade. Dress in comfortable layers and go for shoes that are flat, enclosed and easy to slip on and off.
  • The result of prolonged periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers during long flights. Lower your risks by staying hydrated, keeping your legs moving and wearing compression socks to help your circulation.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Kau?
A little pre-planning before you get to the airport will make your getaway to Kau a piece of cake. Check out our handy tips for a stress-free journey through security:

  • First things first. Your travel documents and passport will need to be inspected by airport security. Keep them someplace accessible so you don't hold up the line.
  • Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Items such as your belt, jacket and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
  • All your electronics, including your phone and tablet, are also required to be scanned separately.
  • Don't forget to remove liquids and gels from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
  • It's also possible you'll need to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a clever idea.
  • Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them safely away in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
