What to wear on a flight:

Your number one priority is to be as comfortable as possible. Layer yourself up in natural-fibre clothing and take a sweater in case it gets cool. Always go with flat, well-fitting shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell a little during the flight. Leave the high heels and heavy boots in your luggage.
The serious condition called deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to poor circulation and inactivity. Walking up and down the aisle and doing leg and foot exercises while seated is a great way to prevent this from occurring. Wearing a quality pair of compression socks or tights is also recommended.

Question 9

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Apia?

Accepted Answer

Being organised before your flight can make your getaway to Apia a piece of cake. We've rounded up some top tips for a stress-free journey through security:

Have your passport and boarding pass someplace easily accessible. They're the first things you'll be asked to show at security.
The X-ray machine is up next. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to beep. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also need to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry though, you'll be back online before you know it.
Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or hairspray, that you want to bring on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), zip-lock bag.
Lightweight sneakers are a practical footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Boots and other heavy-style shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
Airlines won't allow any sharp objects in the cabin. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked luggage.
