How to survive the flight to Wellington?
Depending on where you’re coming from, your trip to Wellington could be as easy as pie or it could drag on forever. We’ve pulled together some handy hints that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The secret to having a great flight experience is to plan ahead. Start with the essentials: passport, official ID, cash and important medications. Next, bring on board items that’ll help pass the time, like some electronic gadgets or a magazine. It’s also a wise idea to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of earphones. Finally, be sure to chuck in toiletry items like a toothbrush, lip balm and a spare set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of prohibited items can differ between airlines, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, pocket knives, spray paint and fireworks. Sports equipment like baseball bats, and items that could injure passengers, such as pepper spray and guns, aren’t allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The goal here is to be as comfortable as possible. Don layers of natural fibers and take a sweater in case it gets cool in the cabin. Pick a pair of roomy, flat shoes as your feet may swell during the flight. Leave the stilettos and heavy boots in your checked luggage.
  • Caused by sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers during long flights. But the great news is there are ways to reduce the risk of developing it. Drink plenty of water, walk up and down the aisles as often as you can and wear compression tights or socks.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Wellington?
It’s easy — be prepared. We’ve compiled some top tips for a stress-free trip through security. Look out Wellington, here you come:

  • Your boarding pass and travel ID will need to be presented to security personnel. Keep them at hand so you don’t hold up the line.
  • The X-ray machine is up next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to set off the scanner’s alarm. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They’ll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
  • All your electronics, including your phone and tablet, will also need to be scanned.
  • Want to bring along your favourite cologne or perfume? As long as it’s in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it’s stored in a zip-close bag, you’re permitted to bring it with you in your carry-on luggage.
  • Slip-on shoes are a sensible footwear choice as you’re less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Big boots and other heavy-style shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
  • Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, put them in your checked luggage. They won’t be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
