How to survive the flight to Pukaki?
We’ve rounded up all the info you need to make your journey as pain-free as possible. Follow our tips and tricks and you’ll be zooming through airport security and having a blast in Pukaki in no time flat.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The trick to having an awesome flight experience is to plan ahead. So, let’s start with the basics: passport, travel docs, credit cards and vital medications. Next, bring items that’ll help pass the time, like your laptop or a juicy novel. It’s also smart to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Finally, be sure to toss in toiletries like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a fresh change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won’t be allowed on. Pointed or sharp objects, like your Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosols and poisons, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The key to a comfortable flight is as simple as your choice in clothes. Prepare yourself for varying temperatures by bringing layers. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin gets too cold. Shoes like high heels and sandals are best left for other occasions. Even though they may be your favourites, opt for flat, closed-toed footwear like slip-ons. Your feet will thank you later.
  • Most travellers are aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of sitting. There are many ways to minimize your risk. Wear a quality pair of compression socks, stay hydrated and remember to keep your legs and feet moving. Do a few laps of the cabin or try out some simple stretches in your seat.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Pukaki?
As seasoned travellers know, the secret is to be organised before you arrive at the airport security gate. That way, you’ll be boarding that plane to Pukaki before you know it. Follow these tips and get your holiday off to a flying start:

  • Your boarding pass and passport will need to be presented to airport security personnel. Have them close by so you don’t have to dig around for them.
  • Next up is the X-ray machine. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to beep. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They’ll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
  • All electronic devices, including your phone and laptop, will also need to be scanned separately.
  • Want to bring along your favourite perfume? No problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it’s stored in a zip-close bag, you’re permitted to bring it with you in your carry-on bag.
  • The right choice of footwear can save you a few precious minutes. Boots and heavy shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Lightweight sneakers usually aren’t.
  • Airlines won’t allow any pocket knives or other sharp items to come on board with you. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked luggage.
