How to survive the flight to Batam?
Depending on where you’re coming from, your journey to Batam could be a piece of cake or it could go on forever. Below are some useful hints that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The trick to having a stress-free flight experience is to pack ahead. So, let’s start with the basics: passport, official ID, bank cards and vital medications. Next, bring items that’ll help keep you occupied, like some electronic devices or a magazine. It’s also a wise idea to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones. Last but not least, be sure to chuck in toiletries like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a fresh set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Check carefully that you don’t have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) lurking in your hand luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable substances, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

  • The best way to ensure a comfortable flight is as simple as your choice of clothes. Prepare for changes in temperature by bringing layers. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin starts to cool down. Shoes like stilettos, flip flops and lace-up boots are best left in your suitcase. Even though they may be your favourites, opt for flat, closed-toed footwear like sneakers. Your feet will thank you later.
  • Unfortunately, one risk of long-haul flights is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity. To prevent this from happening, take every opportunity to stretch your legs and walk around the cabin. Compression socks and tights are another great idea to help reduce this risk.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Batam?
The answer is simple — be organised. We’ve compiled some tips and tricks for a fuss-free trip through security. Look out Batam, here you come:

  • Have your travel documents and ID easily accessible. They’re the first things you’ll be asked for by airport security.
  • The X-ray machine is up next. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to beep. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They’ll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
  • Your electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go through the machine for inspection. No need to worry though, you’ll be back online in no time.
  • Can’t travel without your favourite cologne? As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it’s stored in a clear zip-close bag, you can bring it with you in your carry-on baggage.
  • Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several precious minutes. Boots and heavy shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on shoes usually aren’t.
  • Sharp items such as knives and scissors are not allowed in the cabin. They’ll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked baggage.
