Do you have any tips for my flight to Shimabara?
We've rounded up all the info you need to make your journey a stress-free experience. Follow our tips and you'll be cruising through airport security and having a blast in Shimabara before you know it. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The secret to having a worry-free travel experience is to pack ahead. Start with the essentials: passport, travel documents, bank cards and daily medications. Next, bring items that'll help while away those hours, like your laptop or a good read. It's also a wise idea to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Finally, don't forget to toss in toiletries like a toothbrush, deodorant and a fresh change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Put all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) won't be allowed on. Pointed or sharp objects, like a pocket knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, bleaching agents and fireworks, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Go for comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes by wearing layers, and wear flat, closed-toe shoes like slip-ons.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clotting due to inactivity and poor circulation, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks or tights.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Shimabara?
The answer is simple — be organised. We've rounded up some handy tips and tricks for a hassle-free trip through security. Look out Shimabara, here you come:

  • Have your travel documents and ID handy. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to show at airport security.
  • Next up, both you and your hand luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Items like your belt, coat and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
  • For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, tablet and any other electronic devices must also go through the scanner.
  • Travelling with your favourite perfume or cologne? No problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, you can keep it with you in your carry-on.
  • It's also likely that you'll be required to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a wise idea.
  • Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, put them in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
