We’ve pulled together all the info you need to make your journey an enjoyable experience. Follow our top tips and you’ll be hightailing it through the airport and seeing the best of Great Barrier Island in no time flat.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The secret to having an awesome travel experience is to pack in advance. First up, the essentials: passport, travel documents, credit cards and vital medications. Next, take on board items that’ll help pass the time, like some electronic gadgets or a good read. You’ll also want to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of earphones. Last but not least, be sure to squeeze in toiletries like a toothbrush, deodorant and a fresh set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won’t be allowed on. Pointed or sharp objects, like a Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosols and fireworks, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The best way to ensure a comfortable flight often lies in your clothing choices. Prepare yourself for varying temperatures by bringing layers. That way you’ll stay nice and warm if the cabin gets chilly. Shoes like flip flops and heels are best left in your checked suitcase. Even though they may be your favourites, opt for flat, closed-toed footwear like sneakers. Your feet will appreciate it.
  • Caused by sustained periods of immobility, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers during long flights. The good news is there are proven ways to reduce your risk of developing it. Drink plenty of water, wander through the cabin as often as possible and wear compression socks or tights.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Great Barrier Island?
It’s all about being prepared. We’ve pulled together some handy tips and tricks for an easy trip through security. Look out Great Barrier Island, here you come:

  • First things first. Your travel documents and ID will need to be presented to security personnel. Have them close by to avoid fumbling around for them.
  • The X-ray machine is up next. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to beep. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They’ll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
  • Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go through the machine for inspection. Don’t worry though, you’ll be back online before you know it.
  • Want to bring along your favourite perfume? Not a problem. As long as it’s in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it’s stored in a zip-lock bag, you’re allowed to bring it with you in your carry-on luggage.
  • It’s also possible you’ll need to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a good idea.
  • 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 suitcase. They won’t be allowed in the cabin.
