Question 10

How to survive the flight to Burketown?

Accepted Answer

Depending on where you’re coming from, your flight to Burketown could be as easy as pie or it could go on forever. Here are some handy hints that will help you start your next big adventure on a positive note.

What to pack in your hand luggage:

First, pack your passport, travel documents, cash and daily medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling book and a tablet crammed with your favourite movies are some fantastic options. If you intend to catch more than just forty winks, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes so you'll arrive at your destination looking and feeling fresh.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Sharp objects, like your precious Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, flares and matches, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

The long, narrow aisles of an airplane are no fashion runway. Wear comfortable clothes and remember to bring a sweater as it tends to get cool in the cabin during long-haul flights. Flat, enclosed shoes are always a good idea too.
Unfortunately, one risk of long flights is developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity. To prevent this, make the most of every opportunity to wander around the cabin. Compression socks and tights are another easy way to help lower your risk.

Question 11

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

Accepted Answer

The trick is to be prepared before you get to security. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Burketown in no time at all. Follow these helpful tips and get your holiday off to a great start:

Keep your travel documents and ID at hand. They're the first things you'll be asked to present to airport security.
Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, coat, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your headphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
All electronic gadgets, including your tablet and phone, are also required to be separately scanned.
Travelling with your favourite hand cream? No problem. 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 can keep it with you in your carry-on luggage.
Slip-on shoes are a practical footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Big boots and heavier-style shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
Sharp or pointed objects (like knives and scissors) can't be taken on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them safely away in your checked bags.
