Question 10

How to survive the flight to Bitung?

Accepted Answer

No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you've prepared well. We've put together a list of top travel tips that will help get your Bitung holiday started on the right note.

What to pack in your hand luggage:

The secret to having a stress-free travel experience is to pack ahead. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, travel documents, cash and daily medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you occupied, like your laptop or a thrilling novel. It's also wise to pack your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones. Last but not least, be sure to chuck in toiletries like a toothbrush, lip balm and a spare change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Sharp or pointed objects, like your beloved pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as spray paint, flares and fuels, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

The aisles of a plane are no place for a fashion parade. Don comfortable layers and don't forget to bring a cardigan as it can get quite cool in the cabin on long-haul flights. Closed-toed, flat shoes are always a good idea too.
Unfortunately, a risk of flying long-haul is developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To prevent this, take every opportunity to stretch your legs and walk around the cabin. Compression tights and socks are another easy way to help lower your risk.

Question 11

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Bitung?

Accepted Answer

It's simple — be prepared. We've rounded up some useful tips for a speedy trip through security. Look out Bitung, here you come:

Security personnel first need to check that you have a valid passport and matching boarding pass before anything else. Have them close by, ready for inspection.
Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, coat, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your earphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as your turn draws near.
For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic devices will also need to be sent through the scanner.
Can't travel without your favourite hand cream? As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, you can keep it with you in your carry-on.
Slip-on shoes are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when passing through security. Safety boots and other bulky shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
Airlines won't allow any sharp objects in your carry-on baggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked baggage.
