Do you have any tips for my flight to Papa?
We've rounded up all the info you need to make your journey an enjoyable experience. Follow our tips and you'll be breezing through airport security and enjoying Papa in no time flat. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The trick to having an amazing flight experience is to be prepared. So, let's start with the basics: passport, boarding pass, credit cards and any vital medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help while away those hours, like your laptop or a thrilling book. It's also smart to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earphones. And of course, be sure to pop in toiletry items like a toothbrush, lip balm and a fresh set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Check carefully that you don't have a Swiss Army knife hiding in one of the compartments of your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable products, such as fuel and fireworks, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

  • The aisles of an airplane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer your clothing and choose shoes that are enclosed, flat and easy to pull on and off.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to inactivity and poor circulation, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Papa?
Being prepared before you get to the airport can make your getaway to Papa a breeze. Read through our handy tips for a speedy journey past security:

  • Airport security personnel first need to know that you have a valid ID and boarding pass before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them ready for inspection.
  • Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your coat, belt, keys and other small items, like coins, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
  • For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your tablet, phone and any other electronics will need to go through the scanner.
  • Any gels or liquids, such as lip balm or cologne, that you want to bring on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
  • Slip-on shoes are a great footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when going through security. Hiking boots and heavier-style shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
  • Pocket knives and other sharp items are not allowed on board. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked bags.
