Do you have any tips for my flight to Orapa?
Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you're well organized. We've put together a list of handy travel tips that will help get your Orapa vacation started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • A plane ride can be a comfortable experience if you bring the right gear. First things first, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a spare change of clothes and a good read. Secondly, find room in your bag for your electronic devices, chargers, any medications and maybe a cozy neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, don't forget to bring your passport, travel papers and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of restricted items can differ between airlines, the general guide to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes box cutters, razor blades, aerosol cans and flares. Sporting equipment like ice skates, and objects that could harm other people, such as swords and batons, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Comfort should be your number one priority when deciding what to wear on board. Loose, breathable clothing is a wise option, as are flat, slip-on shoes.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by extended periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to walk around the cabin or do some simple exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Orapa?
The simple answer is — be prepared. We've put together some tips and tricks for a stress-free trip through security. Look out Orapa, here you come:

  • Security personnel first need to verify that you have a valid passport and matching boarding pass before you can proceed any further. Have them close by, ready for inspection.
  • The X-ray machine comes next. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
  • All your electronics, including your tablet and phone, must also 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 separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
  • Choosing your footwear wisely can save you valuable minutes. Boots and heavy shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Lightweight sneakers usually aren't.
  • Airlines won't allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in your carry-on luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked luggage.
