Do you have any tips for my flight to Nuku Hiva?
We've got the lowdown on how to make your journey as enjoyable as possible. Follow our insider tips and you'll be cruising through the airport and discovering Nuku Hiva in no time flat. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The trick to having an amazing travel experience is to plan ahead. Start with the essentials: passport, travel docs, cash and important medications. Next, bring items that'll help keep you occupied, like some electronic devices or a good book. It's also a wise idea to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. And of course, don't forget to squeeze in toiletry items like a toothbrush, lip balm and a fresh change of clothes.

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 avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, pocket knives, spray paint and fireworks. Sporting equipment like ski poles, and items that could harm passengers, such as swords and batons, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Your main priority is to feel as comfortable as you can. Opt for shoes that are easy to slip on and off, dress in loose, natural-fiber clothing and don't forget to take a sweater in case you get cold in the cabin.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-distance flights. It results from blood clots forming due to 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 Nuku Hiva?
The simple answer is — be prepared. We've rounded up some tips and tricks for a fuss-free trip through airport security. Watch out Nuku Hiva, here you come:

  • First things first. Your boarding pass and travel ID will need to be shown to security personnel. Keep them handy to avoid fumbling around for them.
  • Your belt, coat, keys and other items in your pocket, 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 be sent through the scanner.
  • Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or hairspray, that you want to take on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
  • It's also likely that you'll be asked to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a wise idea.
  • Airlines won't allow any sharp or pointed objects in your carry-on baggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked baggage.
