Do you have any tips for my flight to Dhunikolhu?
We've pulled together all the info you need to make your journey a pleasant experience. Follow our tips and tricks and you'll be speeding through the airport and exploring Dhunikolhu before you know it. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • A plane trip can be easy if you pack the right gear. Firstly, you'll want a few toiletry items, such as lip balm and hand cream, a clean set of clothes and a magazine or two. Secondly, find room in your carry-on bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, any medications and perhaps a quality neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, don't forget to take your passport, travel documents and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of banned items differs between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, drills, spray paint and flares. Sporting equipment like hockey sticks, and items that could harm other people, such as firearms and swords, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The aisles of a plane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfortable clothing and go for shoes that are flat, roomy and easy to slip on and off.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by extended periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to walk around the cabin and stretch your legs or do some simple exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Dhunikolhu?
The trick is to be well organised before you get to the security gate. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Dhunikolhu in a flash. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a spectacular start:

  • Security personnel first need to make sure that you have a valid ID and travel documents before you can proceed any further. Have them ready to show.
  • Next up is the X-ray machine. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
  • Your electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry, you'll be back online before you know it.
  • Want to bring along your favourite hand and nail cream? Not a problem. As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, it's OK to bring with you in your carry-on baggage.
  • It's also possible you'll be asked to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a smart idea.
  • Sharp or pointed items are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked luggage.
