How to survive the flight to Lake Tarawera?
Depending on where you’re coming from, your trip to Lake Tarawera could be a breeze or it could drag on forever. Here are some tips that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • It’s easy — first, put in your passport, official ID, wallet and vital medications. Next, you’ll want some in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A juicy novel and a laptop filled with your favourite shows are some wonderful options. If you plan to catch up on some sleep, a quality neck pillow and some noise-cancelling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, squeeze in a few toiletry items so you’ll arrive at your destination looking and feeling fresh.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of banned items can differ between air carriers, the general rule to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like tools, metal cutlery, fireworks and fuel. Sporting equipment like golf clubs, and items that could harm other people, such as pepper spray and firearms, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The main aim is to feel as comfortable as possible. Don layers of breathable clothing and remember to bring a sweater just in case you get chilly. Go for a pair of roomy, flat shoes as your feet may swell a little during the journey. Leave the high heels and heavy boots in your luggage.
  • Most travellers have heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of sitting. There are many ways to reduce your risk. Wear a good-quality pair of compression socks or tights, drink lots of water often and get your legs and feet moving. Do a few laps of the cabin or perform some simple exercises in your seat.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Lake Tarawera?
A little pre-planning before you get to the airport can make your trip to Lake Tarawera easy and painless. Check out our top tips for a swift journey through security:

  • Keep your travel documents and ID within easy reach. They’re the first items you’ll be asked to show at security.
  • After that, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that might set the alarms off. Items like your jacket, belt and earphones need to go through the machine.
  • For just a few moments, you’ll have to unplug from technology. Your laptop, phone and any other electronics will need to go through the scanner.
  • Any gels or liquids, such as toothpaste or perfume, that you want to bring on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • Lightweight sneakers are a good footwear choice as you’re less likely to have to remove them when going through security. Boots and other bulky shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
  • Airlines won’t allow any sharp or pointed objects in your carry-on luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked luggage.
