Do you have any tips for my flight to Rakahanga?
If you're poorly prepared, airports and flying can be a real challenge. But there's no need to panic. Follow these tips and tricks and enjoy a worry-free start to your time in Rakahanga. What to pack in your hand luggage:
  • First, pack in your passport, official ID, wallet and daily medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A juicy novel and a tablet crammed with your favourite movies are some terrific options. If you intend to take a short snooze, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones will also be useful. Finally, leave some space for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes to ensure you touchdown looking and feeling fresh.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
  • While the list of banned items can differ between air carriers, the general rule to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, knives, fuels and bleaching agents. Sports equipment like baseball bats, and objects that could harm passengers, such as swords and guns, won't be allowed on board either.
What to wear on a flight:
  • The aisles of a plane aren't the place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfy clothing and choose shoes that are enclosed, flat and easy to take on and off.
  • You've probably heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of inactivity. To lower your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression tights or socks and move your lower limbs often.
How to get through airport security fast when flying to Rakahanga?
A little pre-planning before you get to the airport will make your getaway to Rakahanga quick and painless. Below are some handy tips for a speedy journey past security:
  • Have your passport and boarding pass at hand. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to show at airport security.
  • After that, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that might trigger the alarms. Items like your jacket, belt and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
  • Your electronic gadgets like phones and laptops will also need to go on a tray to be scanned. No need to worry though, you'll be back online before you know it.
  • Travelling with your favourite perfume? No problem. As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, you're permitted to bring it with you in your carry-on baggage.
  • It's also possible you'll need to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a smart idea.
  • Airlines won't allow any sharp objects in your hand luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked luggage.
