How to survive the flight to Rurutu?
We’ve got the lowdown on how to make your journey as pain-free as possible. Follow our top tips and you’ll be hightailing it through the airport and having a blast in Rurutu in no time flat.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • Air travel can be easy if you bring the right things. First things first, you’ll need toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a fresh change of clothes and a few magazines. Next, find room in your hand luggage for your phone and charger, any vital medications and perhaps a comfy neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, be sure to bring your passport, travel docs and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of restricted items differs between air carriers, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes knives, scissors, fuel and fireworks. Sporting equipment like hockey sticks, and objects that could harm passengers, such as guns and swords, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Your goal here is to be as comfortable as possible. Dress in loose, breathable clothing and pack a sweater just in case you get cold. Opt for roomy, flat shoes as your feet may swell a little during the flight. Leave the high heels and heavy boots in your luggage.
  • Unfortunately, a risk of long-distance flying is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity. To prevent this, make the most of every opportunity to stretch your legs and walk around the cabin. Compression tights and socks are another easy way to help reduce this risk.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Rurutu?
It’s all about being organised. We’ve pulled together some handy tips and tricks for a speedy trip through airport security. Watch out Rurutu, here you come:

  • Have your ID and boarding pass close by. They’re the first things you’ll be asked to present to security.
  • Your belt, coat, keys and other items in your pocket, like your earphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them before your turn.
  • Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go through the machine for inspection. No need to worry though, you’ll be back online before you know it.
  • Remove all gels and liquids from your carry-on luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • It’s also likely that you’ll be required to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a smart idea.
  • Sharp or pointed objects (like knives and scissors) are not allowed in the cabin. They’ll be confiscated at security, so pack them safely away in your checked luggage.
