Do you have any tips for my flight to Port Moresby?
If you're poorly prepared, travelling can be a real challenge. But there's no need to panic. Follow these useful tips for a comfortable start to your holiday in Port Moresby. What to pack in your hand luggage:
  • Travelling on a plane can be a stress-free experience if you've got all the right gear. Firstly, you'll want a few basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a spare pair of socks and a few magazines. Secondly, find room in your carry-on bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, any medications and maybe a neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to bring your passport, travel docs and your credit cards.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
  • While the list of restricted items differs between air carriers, the general rule to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes tools, metal cutlery, fuel and fireworks. Sporting equipment like hockey sticks, and objects that could harm other people, such as swords and guns, aren't allowed in the cabin either.
What to wear on a flight:
  • The aisles of an airplane aren't the place for a fashion parade. Don comfortable layers and choose shoes that are enclosed, flat and easy to take on and off.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Make a point of walking around the cabin or do some simple exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.
How to get through airport security fast when flying to Port Moresby?
The trick is to be well prepared before you get to the airport security gate. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Port Moresby before you know it. Follow these tips and get your holiday off to a spectacular start:
  • Keep your passport and travel documents handy. They're the first things you'll be asked to present to security.
  • Next up is the X-ray machine. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
  • All your electronic devices, including your phone and tablet, must also be scanned separately.
  • Can't travel without your favourite cologne? As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, it's OK to bring with you in your carry-on baggage.
  • The right choice of footwear can save you several precious minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on sneakers are usually not.
  • Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them safely away in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
