Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Kota Kinabatangan could be completely stress-free or it could drag on forever. We've put together some handy travel tips that will help you start your next great adventure on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The secret to having a great flight experience is to be prepared. So, let's start with the basics: passport, official ID, cash and important medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help while away those hours, like some electronic gadgets or a juicy novel. It's also a wise idea to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. Finally, don't forget to toss in toiletry items like a toothbrush, lip balm and a clean T-shirt.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of restricted items can differ between air carriers, the general rule to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, blades, aerosol cans and flares. Sports equipment like ski poles, and objects that could harm passengers, such as swords and guns, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The main aim is to feel as comfortable as you can. Layer yourself up in natural fibers and remember to bring a jacket just in case you get cold. Go for a pair of well-fitting, flat shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell during the journey. Leave the stilettos and heavy boots in your checked baggage.
  • It's likely you've heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. There are plenty of ways to mitigate your risk. Wear a pair of compression socks or tights, stay hydrated and remember to keep your legs and feet moving. Wander up and down the aisles of the cabin or try out some simple stretches in your seat.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Kota Kinabatangan?
As savvy travelers know, the secret is to be organized before you reach security. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Kota Kinabatangan in a flash. Follow these tips and get your vacation off to a spectacular start:

  • Security personnel first need to establish that you have a valid ID and travel documents before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them close by, ready for inspection.
  • The X-ray machine is up next. 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.
  • All electronic gadgets, including your laptop and phone, will also need to be scanned.
  • Any liquids or gels, such as shampoo or hand cream, that you want to take on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
  • The right choice of footwear can save you a few precious minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Lightweight sneakers usually aren't.
  • 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 baggage. They won't be allowed on board.
