How to survive the flight to Milford Sound?
Wherever you’re jetting in from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you’ve prepared well. Check out these handy tips that will get your Milford Sound escape started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The secret to having a pain-free travel experience is to pack in advance. So, let’s start with the essentials: passport, travel documents, cash and any vital medications. Next, bring on board items that’ll help while away those hours, like some electronic devices or a thrilling novel. It’s also a wise idea to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones. Finally, be sure to squeeze in toiletry items like a toothbrush, deodorant and a spare change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Sharp or pointed objects, like your treasured pocket knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, bleaching agents and gasoline, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The aisles of an aircraft are not the best place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfy clothing and take a sweater as it tends to get cool in the cabin on long-haul flights. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are also a good idea.
  • Most travellers are aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by reduced mobility or inactivity. There’s lots you can do to mitigate your risk. Wear a quality pair of compression tights or socks, drink lots of water and move your legs and feet. Walk around the cabin when possible or try out some simple stretches in your seat.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Milford Sound?
A little pre-planning before you get to the airport can make your getaway to Milford Sound quick and painless. Here are some top tips for a swift journey through security:

  • Be sure to have your boarding pass and passport handy. They’re the first items you’ll be asked to show at security.
  • After that, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that might set the alarms off. Items like your belt, jacket and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
  • All your electronic gadgets, including your phone and laptop, are also required to be scanned separately.
  • Any liquids or gels, such as lip balm or cologne, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), zip-lock bag.
  • Lightweight sneakers are a clever footwear choice as you’re less likely to be asked to remove them when passing through security. Boots and heavier-style shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
  • Sharp or pointed items can’t be taken on board. They’ll be seized at security, so put them in your checked luggage.
