Do you have any tips for my flight to Makarau?
If you're not prepared, airports and flying can be daunting. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these useful tips and enjoy a trouble-free start to your getaway in Makarau. What to pack in your hand luggage:
  • The trick to having a pain-free travel experience is to pack ahead. Start with the essentials: passport, boarding pass, cash and important medications. Next, bring items that'll help keep you entertained, like some electronic devices or a few magazines. It's also wise to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of headphones. And of course, don't forget to chuck in toiletries like a toothbrush, deodorant and a spare set of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
  • Put all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp objects, like your precious Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosols and strong acids, are also prohibited.
What to wear on a flight:
  • Comfort should be your number one priority when deciding what to wear on your flight. Loose clothing is a sensible option, as are roomy, closed-toe shoes.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to inactivity and poor circulation, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks or tights.
How to get through airport security fast when flying to Makarau?
Being organised before your flight will make your trip to Makarau easy and painless. Below you'll find some handy hints for a speedy journey through security:
  • Be sure to keep your passport and travel documents handy. They're the first things you'll be asked for by airport security.
  • The X-ray machine is up next. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
  • For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic gadgets will also need to go through the scanner.
  • Remember to remove liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
  • There's a good chance you'll be required to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a smart idea.
  • Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed on board.
