How to survive the flight to Wilderness?
If you’re not prepared, airports and flying can be overwhelming. But there’s no need to hit the panic button just yet. Follow these useful tips and enjoy a worry-free start to your time in Wilderness.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • A plane trip can be a cruisy experience if you pack the right stuff. Firstly, you’ll need basic toiletry items, such as deodorant, toothpaste and a toothbrush, a clean pair of socks and a good novel. Next, leave space in your carry-on bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, your medications and maybe a quality neck pillow too. Lastly, don’t forget to take your passport, travel docs and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of restricted items can differ between airlines, the general rule to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, blades, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sports equipment like baseball bats, and items that could injure passengers, such as swords and batons, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The key to a comfortable flight is as simple as your choice of clothes. Prepare yourself for varying temperatures by layering up. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin begins to cool down. Shoes like sandals and heels are best left in your checked suitcase. Even though they may be your favourites, go for flat, closed-toed footwear like slip-ons. Your feet will thank you later.
  • Unfortunately, one risk of long-haul flights is developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To avoid this, take every opportunity to stretch your legs and walk around the cabin. Compression tights and socks are another great idea to help minimize this risk.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Wilderness?
The secret is to be prepared before you get to the airport security gate. That way, you’ll be boarding that plane to Wilderness in no time at all. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a flying start:

  • Your travel documents and ID will need to be shown to airport security. Keep them within easy reach so you don’t hold up the queue.
  • Next up, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that might set the alarms off. Items such as your jacket, belt and earphones need to go through the machine.
  • All your electronics, including your laptop and phone, must also be scanned separately.
  • Any gels or liquids, such as hair oil or hand cream, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), zip-lock bag.
  • Lightweight sneakers are a clever footwear choice as you’re less likely to be required to remove them when passing through security. Big boots and other heavy shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
  • Airlines won’t allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in your hand luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, check them in.
