Do you have any tips for my flight to Vilu Reef?
We've pulled together all the info you need to make your flight as stress-free as possible. Follow our tips and you'll be breezing through airport security and exploring Vilu Reef in no time at all. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • A plane trip can be a great experience if you bring the right stuff. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletries, such as lip balm and hand cream, a fresh change of clothes and a magazine or two. Next, leave space in your bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, your medications and maybe a quality neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, be sure to take your passport, travel docs and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of banned items differs between airlines, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, drills, spray paint and fireworks. Sporting equipment like baseball bats, and objects that could harm other people, such as pepper spray and guns, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Comfort should be your main concern when deciding what to wear on your flight. Loose clothing is a smart option, as are flat, enclosed shoes.
  • Most of us have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of inactivity. To lessen your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression socks and move your lower limbs often.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Vilu Reef?
Being organised before you get to the airport can make your trip to Vilu Reef quick and painless. Read through our handy tips for a speedy journey past security:

  • Security personnel first need to determine that you have a valid ID and boarding pass before you're allowed to proceed any further. Keep them close by.
  • Next up, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Items such as your coat, belt and earphones 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 gadgets also need to go through the scanner.
  • Want to bring along your favourite perfume or cologne? As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, it's OK to bring with you in your carry-on baggage.
  • The right choice of footwear can save you several minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
  • Airlines won't allow any sharp items or pocket knives in your hand luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked baggage.
