Do you have any tips for my flight to Tongaporutu?
We've got the lowdown on how to make your journey a pleasant experience. Follow our tips and tricks and you'll be speeding through the airport and seeing the best of Tongaporutu in no time at all. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The secret to having a great travel experience is to pack ahead. First up, the essentials: passport, travel documents, bank cards and vital medications. Next, bring items that'll help keep you busy, like your laptop or a few magazines. It's also wise to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones. Finally, don't forget to chuck in toiletry items like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a clean T-shirt.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated by security. Sharp or pointed objects, like your trusty Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as spray paint, flares and gasoline, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Go for comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes by donning layers, and pick flat, slightly roomy shoes like slip-ons.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by extended periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to walk around the cabin and stretch your legs or do some simple exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Tongaporutu?
The trick is to be organised before you arrive at airport security. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Tongaporutu in no time flat. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a fantastic start:

  • Security personnel first need to establish that you have a valid passport and matching travel documents before you can proceed any further. Have them in your hand, ready for inspection.
  • Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Personal belongings like your coat, belt and earphones need to go through the machine.
  • For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your tablet, phone and any other electronics also need to go through the scanner.
  • Remember to remove gels and liquids from your hand luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
  • The right choice of footwear can save you a few precious minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
  • Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them safely away in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed on board.
