How to survive the flight to Wellington?
We’ve rounded up all the info you need to make your flight as pain-free as possible. Follow our tips and you’ll be zooming through airport security and seeing the best of Wellington in no time at all.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • Flying can be a comfortable experience if you’ve got all the right things. Firstly, you’ll want some basic toiletry items, such as deodorant, toothpaste and a toothbrush, a spare set of clothes and a good book. Secondly, make room in your carry-on bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, any daily medications and perhaps a neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, remember to take your passport, travel documents and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Double-check that you don’t have a Swiss Army knife lurking in one of the zippers of your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable products, such as fuel and matches, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

  • The narrow aisles of your aircraft are not the place for a fashion parade. Wear comfortable clothes and pack a sweater as it can get chilly in the cabin. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are always a good idea too.
  • Unfortunately, a risk of long-haul flights is developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To prevent this, take every opportunity to walk around and give your legs a stretch. Compression socks and tights are also a great idea to help lower your risk.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Wellington?
The secret is to be well organised before you reach airport security. That way, you’ll be boarding that plane to Wellington in no time flat. Follow these tips and get your holiday off to a terrific start:

  • Airport security personnel first need to verify that you have a valid passport and boarding pass before you can proceed any further. Have them close by, ready for inspection.
  • After that, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that might set the alarms off. Items such as your jacket, belt and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
  • All electronic gadgets, including your phone and tablet, must also be scanned.
  • Don’t forget to remove liquids and gels from your carry-on bag. 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 milliliters) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
  • The right choice of footwear can save you several minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on sneakers usually aren’t.
  • Sharp items like knives can’t be taken on board. They’ll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked baggage.
