How to survive the flight to Pekanbaru?
Depending on where you’re coming from, your trip to Pekanbaru could be a piece of cake or it could drag on forever. We’ve compiled some tips that will help you start your next great escape on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • Air travel can be easy if you’ve got all the right stuff. First things first, you’ll need basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and some deodorant, a fresh set of clothes and a few magazines. Secondly, find room in your hand luggage for your electronic devices, chargers, any vital medications and maybe a blow-up neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to take your passport, travel documents and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Double-check that you don’t have a Swiss Army knife hiding in your carry-on luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable goods, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

  • The key to a comfortable flight is often as simple as the clothes you wear. Prepare for changes in temperature by layering up. That way you’ll stay nice and warm if the cabin begins to cool down. Shoes like stilettos, flip flops and lace-up boots are best left in your suitcase. Even though they may be your favourites, opt for flat, closed-toed footwear like slip-ons. Your feet will appreciate it.
  • The serious condition by the name of DVT (deep vein thrombosis) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It’s the result of blood clots forming due to inactivity and poor circulation. Walking around the cabin and doing regular foot and leg exercises while seated helps to prevent this developing. Wearing a pair of compression tights or socks is also recommended.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Pekanbaru?
A little pre-planning before you get to the airport can make your trip to Pekanbaru a pleasure. Read through our useful tips and tricks for a stress-free journey through security:

  • Your boarding pass and passport will need to be presented to airport security. Keep them someplace accessible so you don’t hold up the queue.
  • After that, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Personal belongings such as your belt, coat and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
  • All electronic gadgets, including your tablet and phone, will also need to be scanned separately.
  • Travelling with a new cologne? As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it’s stored in a clear zip-close bag, you can keep it with you in your carry-on bag.
  • It’s also possible you’ll be required to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a clever idea.
  • Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, put them in your checked baggage. They won’t be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
