Do you have any tips for my flight to Alotau?
We've pulled together all the info you need to make your flight as enjoyable as possible. Follow our tips and tricks and you'll be hightailing it through airport security and having a ball in Alotau in next to no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • Air travel can be a pleasure if you carry the right things. Firstly, you'll want some basic toiletry items, such as lip balm and hand cream, a spare pair of socks and a magazine or two. Secondly, make room in your hand luggage for your phone and charger, any medications and perhaps a cosy neck pillow too. Lastly, remember to bring your passport, travel papers and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of restricted items differs between airlines, the general rule of thumb is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, pocket knives, spray paint and flares. Sporting equipment like golf clubs, and objects that could harm passengers, such as swords and batons, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Comfort should be your priority when choosing what to wear on your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a smart option, as are flat, slightly roomy shoes.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to walk around the cabin or do some gentle exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Alotau?
The secret is to be well organised before you arrive at the security gate. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Alotau in the blink of an eye. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a great start:

  • Your ID and travel documents will need to be inspected by airport security personnel. Keep them at hand so you don't hold up the line.
  • Next up is the X-ray machine. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
  • All electronic gadgets, including your tablet and phone, will also need to be separately scanned.
  • Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or toothpaste, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), zip-lock bag.
  • There's a chance you'll need to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a good idea.
  • Airlines won't allow any sharp items or pocket knives to come on board with you. If you need to bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked luggage.
