Do you have any tips for my flight to Kunak?
We've rounded up all the info you need to make your journey an enjoyable experience. Follow our top tips and you'll be hightailing it through airport security and having a blast in Kunak in no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • A plane trip can be a great experience if you pack the right things. First of all you'll need toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a clean set of clothes and a good novel. Next, make room in your bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, any vital medications and perhaps a neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget to take your passport, travel documents and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Pointed or sharp objects, like a pocket knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosols and poisons, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The aisles of an aircraft aren't the place for a fashion parade. Don comfortable layers and choose shoes that are closed-toe, flat and easy to remove.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a potential risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to inactivity and poor circulation, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression tights or socks.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Kunak?
It's all about being organized. We've pulled together some useful tips for an easy trip through security. Watch out Kunak, here you come:

  • First things first. Your passport and boarding pass will need to be shown to airport security. Keep them at hand to avoid fumbling around for them.
  • Your jacket, 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 faster by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
  • For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic devices will also need to go through the scanner.
  • Any liquids or gels, such as shampoo or hairspray, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
  • Slip-on shoes are a practical footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when going through security. Hiking boots and heavier-style shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
  • Airlines won't allow any sharp objects in your carry-on luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked baggage.
