How to survive the flight to Wakunai?
Depending on where you’re coming from, your flight to Wakunai could be as easy as pie or it could drag on forever. Here are some tips that will help you start your unforgettable escape on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • It’s simple — first, pack in your passport, important documents, wallet and daily medications. Next, you’ll want some in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy book and a phone crammed with your favourite shows are always good options. If you intend to take a quick snooze, a comfy neck pillow and some earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, leave space for a few toiletry items so you’ll hop off the plane looking and feeling fresh.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Sharp objects, like your beloved Swiss Army knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, bleaching agents and matches, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The answer to a comfortable flight often lies in your clothing choices. Prepare for temperature changes by bringing layers. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin gets chilly. Shoes like stilettos, flip flops and lace-up boots are best left for other occasions. Even though they may be your favourites, opt for flat, closed-toed footwear like sneakers. Your feet will appreciate it.
  • Most of us have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of sitting. There are plenty of ways to reduce your risk. Wear a quality pair of compression socks, drink lots of water often and move your legs and feet. Wander around the cabin or perform exercises in your seat.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Wakunai?
A little pre-planning before you arrive at the airport will help make your trip to Wakunai a piece of cake. We’ve rounded up some top tips for a swift journey through security:

  • Security personnel first need to know that you have a valid ID and matching boarding pass before you’re allowed to proceed any further. Have them in your hand, ready for inspection.
  • Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, coat, keys and other small items, like coins, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as your turn draws near.
  • For just a few minutes, you’ll have to unplug from the digital world. Your laptop, phone and any other electronics must also be sent through the scanner.
  • Any liquids or gels, such as shampoo or hairspray, that you want to take on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • There’s a good chance you’ll be asked to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a clever idea.
  • Knives and other sharp items are prohibited in the cabin. They’ll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked baggage.
