How to survive the flight to Kiritimati?
No matter where you’re coming from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you’ve prepared well. Follow these handy travel tips that will get your Kiritimati holiday started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • Flying can be a stress-free experience if you’ve got all the right things. Firstly, you’ll need basic toiletry items, such as toothpaste, a toothbrush and some deodorant, a clean set of clothes and a few magazines. Secondly, leave space in your carry-on bag for your mobile phone, a charger, your important medications and maybe a blow-up neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to take your passport, travel papers and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Pack 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 your pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosols and matches, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The answer to a comfortable flight often lies in your choice of clothes. Prepare for changes in temperature by layering up. That way you’ll stay nice and warm if the cabin starts to cool down. Shoes like sandals and heels are best left for other occasions. Instead, opt for flat, closed-toed footwear like slip-ons. Your feet will appreciate it.
  • Unfortunately, a risk of long flights is developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged inactivity. To avoid this, make the most of every opportunity to wander around the cabin. Compression tights and socks are another simple way to help lower your risk.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Kiritimati?
The trick is to be well prepared before you get to the airport security gate. That way, you’ll be boarding that plane to Kiritimati in no time flat. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a spectacular start:

  • Your passport and boarding pass will need to be shown to airport security. Keep them within easy reach to avoid fumbling around for them.
  • The X-ray machine is up next. Remove anything on you that is likely to set off the scanner’s alarm. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They’ll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
  • Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go through the machine for inspection. Don’t worry though, you’ll be back online soon enough.
  • Any liquids or gels, such as shampoo or hand cream, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • The right choice of footwear can save you valuable minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
  • Sharp or pointed items can’t be taken on board. They’ll be confiscated at security, so pack them safely away in your checked baggage.
