How to survive the flight to New Brighton?
We’ve rounded up all the info you need to make your flight as enjoyable as possible. Follow our tips and you’ll be speeding through airport security and exploring New Brighton before you know it.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The secret to having an awesome flight experience is to be prepared. So, let’s start with the essentials: passport, travel docs, cash and daily medications. Next, bring on board items that’ll help while away those hours, like some electronic gadgets or a good book. It’s also wise to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. And of course, don’t forget to toss in toiletry items like a toothbrush, lip balm and a fresh set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp or pointed objects, like your beloved pocket knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as spray paint, flares and matches, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The long, narrow aisles of an airplane are not the place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfy clothing and bring a sweater as it tends to get cool in the cabin on long-haul flights. Slightly roomy, flat shoes are always a good choice too.
  • Unfortunately, one risk of long-haul flights is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by extended periods of inactivity. To prevent this, take every opportunity to walk around and give your legs a stretch. Compression tights and socks are also a great idea to help minimize this risk.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to New Brighton?
The trick is to be prepared before you reach the security gate. That way, you’ll be hopping onto that plane to New Brighton in next to no time. Follow these tips and get your holiday off to a great start:

  • Security personnel first need to determine that you have a valid ID and boarding pass before you can proceed any further. Have them close by, ready for inspection.
  • Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, coat, keys and other items in your pocket, like coins, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them before your turn.
  • Your electronic gadgets like phones and laptops will also have to go through the machine to be scanned. Don’t worry, you’ll be back online before you know it.
  • Travelling with a new cologne? 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-close bag, it’s fine to bring with you on board.
  • Lightweight sneakers are a great footwear choice as you’re less likely to be asked to remove them when passing through security. Big boots and other bulky shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
  • Airlines will not allow any pocket knives or other sharp items to come on board with you. If you must bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked baggage.
