How to survive the flight to Cookstown?
Depending on where you’re coming from, your flight to Cookstown could be simple and straightforward or it could go on forever. Here are some handy hints that will help you start your next big adventure on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • Flying can be easy if you pack the right gear. Firstly, you’ll want a few toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare set of clothes and a good novel. Secondly, find room in your carry-on bag for your laptop, a charger, any medications and maybe a quality neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, don’t forget to bring your passport, travel docs and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp or pointed objects, like a pocket knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosols and poisons, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Comfort should always be your highest priority when selecting what to wear on board. Consider your footwear choice with care too, as swollen feet are a common occurrence. Roomy, closed-toed shoes are always a sensible way to go.
  • A condition by the name of DVT (deep vein thrombosis) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It’s the result of blood clotting due to poor circulation. Doing regular foot and leg exercises while seated helps to prevent this from happening. Wearing a good-quality pair of compression tights or socks also helps reduce your risk.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Cookstown?
The answer is simple — be organised. We’ve pulled together some tips and tricks for an easy trip through security. Watch out Cookstown, here you come:

  • Your travel documents and ID will need to be presented to airport security personnel. Keep them handy so you don’t hold up the queue.
  • Your jacket, belt, keys and other small items, like coins, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
  • For just a few minutes, you’ll have to unplug from technology. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic gadgets also need to be sent through the scanner.
  • Travelling with your favourite hand and nail cream? 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’re permitted to bring it with you in your carry-on luggage.
  • There’s a chance you’ll need to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a wise idea.
  • Knives and other sharp items are not allowed in the cabin. They’ll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked bags.
