How to survive the flight to Fox Glacier?
We’ve rounded up all the info you need to make your flight an enjoyable experience. Follow our insider tips and you’ll be zooming through the airport and exploring Fox Glacier in no time.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • Travelling on a plane can be a stress-free experience if you take the right stuff. Firstly, you’ll need basic toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a fresh set of clothes and a few magazines. Secondly, make room in your hand luggage for your electronic gadgets, chargers, your important medications and maybe a cosy neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, don’t forget to take your passport, travel papers and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of restricted items differs between airlines, the general rule to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like tools, metal cutlery, fuel and fireworks. Sporting equipment like baseball bats, and objects that could injure passengers, such as firearms and ammunition, aren’t allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Your goal here is to feel as comfortable as you can. Layer up in natural fibers and take a sweater in case it gets cold in the cabin. Opt for roomy, flat shoes as it’s possible that your feet and ankles will swell during the flight. Leave the stilettos and chunky boots in your luggage.
  • Unfortunately, one risk of long-haul flights is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by extended periods of inactivity. To prevent this, make the most of every opportunity to walk around the cabin and stretch your legs. Compression tights and socks are another simple way to help lower your risk.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Fox Glacier?
Being prepared before you get to the airport will make your trip to Fox Glacier a piece of cake. Below are some handy tips for a speedy journey past security:

  • First things first. Your travel ID and boarding pass will need to be shown to airport security personnel. Keep them at hand to avoid fumbling around for them.
  • Your coat, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like your earphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as your turn draws near.
  • Your electronic gadgets like laptops and phones will also need to go on a tray to be scanned. No need to worry though, you’ll be back online before you know it.
  • Any gels or liquids, such as hair oil or hand cream, that you want to take on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
  • It’s also possible you’ll be required to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a smart idea.
  • Airlines won’t allow any sharp objects in your carry-on baggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked luggage.
