How to survive the flight to Merauke?
If you’re poorly prepared, air travel can be a real challenge. But there’s no need to worry. Follow these handy tips and enjoy a stress-free start to your getaway in Merauke.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The secret to having a hassle-free flight experience is to plan ahead. First up, the essentials: passport, travel docs, credit cards and any vital medications. Next, bring items that’ll help while away those hours, like some electronic gadgets or a thrilling novel. It’s also smart to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones. Last but not least, be sure to pop in toiletry items like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a spare set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of banned items can differ between airlines, the general guide to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like box cutters, razor blades, spray paint and flares. Sports equipment like golf clubs, and items that could injure passengers, such as swords and guns, won’t be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The goal here is to make yourself as comfortable as possible. Don layers of breathable clothing and remember to pack a sweater in case it gets cool. Go for a pair of flat, well-fitting shoes as it’s possible that your feet and ankles will swell a little during the flight. Leave the stilettos and heavy boots in your luggage.
  • The result of lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers on long-distance flights. But the good news is there are proven ways to lower your risk of developing it. Stay well hydrated, get up and walk around the cabin whenever possible and wear compression socks or tights.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Merauke?
Being organised before you get to the airport will help make your getaway to Merauke a piece of cake. Check out our useful tips for a speedy journey past security:

  • Your travel ID and boarding pass will need to be shown to airport security personnel. Keep them handy so you don’t hold up the queue.
  • Your coat, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like your earphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as your turn draws near.
  • Your electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go through the machine to be scanned. Don’t worry though, you’ll be back online before you know it.
  • Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or toothpaste, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), zip-lock bag.
  • It’s also likely that you’ll need to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a clever idea.
  • Sharp or pointed objects (like knives and scissors) are not allowed on board. They’ll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked baggage.
