How to survive the flight to Mapua?
Wherever you’re coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you’re prepared. Check out these handy tips that will get your Mapua escape started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • Air travel can be a comfortable experience if you pack the right things. First of all you’ll need toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a clean pair of socks and a magazine or two. Secondly, make room in your hand luggage for your laptop, a charger, your medications and perhaps a quality neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, remember to take your passport, travel docs and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of restricted items can differ between airlines, the general rule of thumb is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, pocket knives, fuels and bleaching agents. Sporting equipment like baseball bats, and items that could harm passengers, such as guns and swords, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The narrow aisles of your aircraft are no place for a fashion parade. Wear comfortable clothes and pack a sweater as it can get quite cool in the cabin during long-haul flights. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are also a sensible choice.
  • Unfortunately, one risk of flying long distances is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), 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.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Mapua?
As savvy travellers know, the secret is to be well organised before you reach the security gate. That way, you’ll be stepping onto that plane to Mapua before you know it. Follow these helpful tips and get your holiday off to a fantastic start:

  • Security personnel first need to see that you have a valid passport and matching travel documents before anything else. Keep them within easy reach.
  • The X-ray machine is up next. Remove anything on you that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They’ll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
  • Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go through the machine for inspection. Don’t worry, you’ll be back online soon enough.
  • Travelling with a new cologne or perfume? No problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it’s stored in a clear zip-close bag, you’re allowed to bring it with you in your carry-on bag.
  • Slip-on shoes are a great footwear choice as you’re less likely to be required to remove them when going through security. Hiking boots and heavier-style shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
  • Airlines won’t allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in the cabin. If you need to bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked baggage.
