How to survive the flight to Samal?
Wherever you’re coming from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you’ve prepared well enough. We’ve compiled a list of handy tips and tricks that will help get your Samal escape started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • Travelling on a plane can be a cruisy experience if you carry the right gear. First of all you’ll need toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a spare pair of socks and a good book. Next, leave space in your bag for your laptop, a charger, any medications and maybe a comfy neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, don’t forget to take your passport, travel papers and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of restricted items differs between air carriers, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, knives, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sports equipment like hockey sticks, and items that could harm other people, such as pepper spray and firearms, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The narrow aisles of an airplane are no fashion runway. Layer up with comfortable clothing and don’t forget to bring a sweater as it tends to get cool inside the cabin. Flat, enclosed shoes are also a wise idea.
  • The serious condition by the name of DVT (deep vein thrombosis) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clots forming due to inactivity and poor circulation. Doing regular leg and foot exercises while seated is a great way to prevent this developing. Wearing a good pair of compression socks or tights is also recommended.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Samal?
As savvy travellers know, the secret is to be well prepared before you arrive at airport security. That way, you’ll be stepping onto that plane to Samal in the blink of an eye. Follow these helpful tips and get your holiday off to a fantastic start:

  • Be sure to keep your boarding pass and passport within easy reach. They’ll be the first things you’ll be asked for by airport security.
  • After that, both you and your hand luggage will be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that might set the alarms off. Personal belongings like your jacket, belt and headphones need to go through the machine.
  • For just a few minutes, you’ll have to unplug from technology. Your tablet, phone and any other electronics will also need to be sent through the scanner.
  • Don’t forget to remove liquids and gels from your hand luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • Slip-on shoes are a great footwear choice as you’re less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Safety boots and other bulky shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
  • Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, put them in your checked baggage. They won’t be allowed on board.
