How to survive the flight to Matamata?
We’ve got the lowdown on how to make your journey a pleasant experience. Follow our top tips and you’ll be breezing through airport security and seeing the best of Matamata in no time at all.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • First, pack in your passport, official ID, cash and vital medications. Next, you’ll want some entertainment to while away the hours. A thrilling book and a phone filled with your favourite shows are some wonderful options. If you plan to catch more than just forty winks, a neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, leave space for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes so you’ll touchdown feeling fresh as a daisy.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Make sure you don’t have a pocket knife lurking in the bottom of your hand luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable substances, such as bleach and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

  • Your number one priority is to be as comfortable as you can. Layer up with loose, natural-fibre clothing and pack a pullover just in case you get cold. Pick a pair of roomy, flat shoes as your feet may swell a little during the journey. Leave the high heels and hiking boots in your luggage.
  • The result of lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers during long-haul flights. The good news is there are numerous ways to reduce the risk of developing it. Keep your fluids up, get up and walk around the cabin as much as you can and wear compression tights or socks.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Matamata?
The answer is simple — be organised. We’ve compiled some helpful hints for a stress-free trip through airport security. Look out Matamata, here you come:

  • First things first. Your passport and boarding pass will need to be presented to security personnel. Keep them at hand so you don’t have to dig around for them.
  • The X-ray machine is up next. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to beep. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They’ll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
  • All your electronic devices, including your phone and laptop, will also need to be scanned.
  • Remove all gels and liquids from your hand luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • Lightweight sneakers are a great footwear choice as you’re less likely to be asked to remove them when going through security. Boots and other heavy shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
  • Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them in your checked luggage. They won’t be allowed in the cabin.
