Do you have any tips for my flight to Russell Island?
If you're not prepared, air travel can be a real challenge. But there's no need to hit the panic button just yet. Follow these handy hints and enjoy a worry-free start to your vacation in Russell Island. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • Air travel can be a pleasure if you pack the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want a few basic toiletry items, such as lip balm and hand cream, a spare pair of socks and something to read. Secondly, find room in your carry-on bag for your mobile phone, a charger, any vital medications and maybe a neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to bring your passport, travel docs and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Check carefully that you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) lurking in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive products, such as fuel and fireworks, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

  • You'll want to choose comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes in the cabin by donning layers, and pick flat, closed-toe shoes like slip-ons.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a potential risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clotting due to poor circulation, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Russell Island?
A little pre-planning before you get to the airport will help make your getaway to Russell Island a piece of cake. Below you'll find some useful tips for a swift journey past security:

  • Have your ID and boarding pass easily accessible. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to show at airport security.
  • Your coat, belt, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your earphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them before your turn arrives.
  • All electronic devices, including your phone and tablet, will also need to be scanned.
  • Remember to remove liquids and gels from your hand luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
  • There's a good chance you'll need to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a smart idea.
  • Sharp or pointed objects (like knives and scissors) can't be taken on board. They'll be seized at security, so put them in your checked luggage.
