How to survive the flight to Mabul Island?
We’ve got the lowdown on how to make your journey as enjoyable as possible. Follow our tips and you’ll be speeding through the airport and having a blast in Mabul Island in next to no time.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • First, put in your passport, official ID, credit cards and vital medications. Next, you’ll want some entertainment to while away the time. A juicy novel and a tablet filled with your favourite shows are good options. If you plan to take a quick snooze, a neck pillow and some noise-cancelling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some facial wipes to ensure you arrive at your destination feeling fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of restricted items differs between airlines, the general rule of thumb is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, blades, spray paint and fireworks. Sporting equipment like golf clubs, and items that could harm other people, such as swords and batons, won’t be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Comfort really should be your priority when picking what to wear on your flight. Consider your footwear choice with care too, as swollen feet and ankles are a common occurrence. Shoes which are flat and slightly roomy are always a good idea.
  • The result of sustained periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a serious condition that can affect passengers during long flights. The great news is there are numerous ways to reduce your risk of developing it. Drink plenty of water, wander around the cabin as often as you can and wear compression socks or tights.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Mabul Island?
A little pre-planning before you get to the airport will make your trip to Mabul Island a breeze. Read through our useful tips and tricks for a stress-free journey through security:

  • Your travel documents and ID will need to be shown to airport security personnel. Keep them at hand so you don’t have to dig around for them.
  • Next up, both you and your hand luggage must be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Personal belongings like your belt, jacket and headphones need to go through the machine.
  • All electronic gadgets, including your laptop and phone, will also need to be separately scanned.
  • Any gels or liquids, such as lip balm or cologne, that you want to bring on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • The right choice of footwear can save you several minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Lightweight sneakers usually aren’t.
  • Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, put them in your checked luggage. They won’t be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
