How to survive the flight to Papetō'ai?
We’ve got the lowdown on how to make your flight as pain-free as possible. Follow our tips and you’ll be cruising through airport security and discovering Papetō’ai in next to no time.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • First, pack in your passport, travel documents, wallet and medications. Next, you’ll want some entertainment to while away the hours. A thrilling novel and a laptop crammed with your favourite shows are some great options. If you hope to take a short snooze, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also be useful. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes to ensure you touchdown feeling fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp objects, like your pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, flares and strong acids, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Comfort really should be your main priority when choosing what to wear during your flight. Consider your footwear choice with care too, as swollen ankles and feet can be a side effect of flying. Slightly roomy, flat shoes are always a sensible way to go.
  • Unfortunately, a risk of flying long distances is developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by extended periods of inactivity. To prevent this, take every opportunity to wander around the cabin. Compression socks and tights are also a great idea to help lower your risk.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Papetō'ai?
The answer is simple — be organised. We’ve put together some helpful hints for a hassle-free trip through security. Watch out Papetō’ai, here you come:

  • Keep your passport and travel documents at hand. They’re the first things you’ll be asked to show at airport security.
  • The X-ray machine comes next. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to set off the scanner’s alarm. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They’ll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
  • Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go on a tray for inspection. No need to worry though, you’ll be back online soon enough.
  • Want to bring along your favourite cologne or perfume? As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it’s stored in a zip-close bag, it’s OK to bring with you in your carry-on.
  • 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 other heavy shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
  • Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them safely away in your checked suitcase. They won’t be allowed in the cabin.
