How to survive the flight to Lake Hawea?
If you’re not prepared, airports and flying can be a real challenge. But there’s no need to worry. Follow these tips and tricks for a trouble-free start to your getaway in Lake Hawea.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The trick to having a hassle-free travel experience is to be prepared. Start with the essentials: passport, boarding pass, cash and daily medications. Next, bring items that’ll help keep you busy, like some electronic devices or a good book. It’s also smart to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of earphones. Finally, don’t forget to pop in toiletry items like a toothbrush, lip balm and a fresh set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Leave all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Pointed or sharp objects, like your Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, flares and fuels, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The best way to ensure a comfortable flight often lies in your choice of clothes. Prepare for changes in temperature by bringing layers. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin gets chilly. Shoes like stilettos, flip flops and lace-up boots are best left for other occasions. Even though they may be your favourites, go for flat, closed-toed footwear like slip-ons. Your feet will thank you later.
  • A condition known as DVT (deep vein thrombosis) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clotting due to inactivity and poor circulation. Doing leg and foot exercises in your seat helps to prevent this occurring. Wearing a high-quality pair of compression socks also helps reduce your risk.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Lake Hawea?
The answer is simple — be prepared. We’ve compiled some helpful hints for a hassle-free trip through airport security. Watch out Lake Hawea, here you come:

  • Airport security personnel first need to verify that you have a valid passport and matching boarding pass before you can proceed any further. Keep them within easy reach.
  • The X-ray machine comes next. Remove anything on you that is likely to set off the scanner’s alarm. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They’ll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
  • For just a few moments, you’ll need to unplug from the digital world. Your laptop, phone and any other electronic gadgets will need to go through the scanner.
  • Travelling with your favourite cologne or perfume? No problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it’s stored in a clear zip-lock bag, you can keep it with you in your carry-on luggage.
  • Slip-on shoes are a sensible footwear choice as you’re less likely to be required to remove them when going through security. Hiking boots and other bulky shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
  • Airlines will not allow any sharp objects in your carry-on baggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked luggage.
