How to survive the flight to Papatura Island?
If you’re poorly prepared, traveling can be challenging. But don’t hit the panic button just yet. Follow these useful tips and enjoy a pain-free start to your getaway in Papatura Island.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The trick to having a pain-free flight experience is to be prepared. So, let’s start with the basics: passport, travel docs, credit cards and important medications. Next, bring on board items that’ll help keep you entertained, like some electronic devices or a good read. It’s also wise to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earphones. Last but not least, be sure to squeeze in toiletry items like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a spare set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of prohibited items can differ between airlines, the general guide to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes box cutters, razor blades, aerosol cans and flares. Sporting equipment like ski poles, and items that could harm passengers, such as pepper spray and firearms, aren’t allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The aisles of an aircraft are no fashion runway. Don comfortable layers and don’t forget to bring a sweater as the temperature can drop in the cabin during long-haul flights. Slightly roomy, flat shoes are also a good idea.
  • The serious condition known as DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a risk on long-haul flights. It’s the result of blood clotting due to inactivity and poor circulation. Doing regular foot and leg exercises while seated helps to prevent this occurring. Wearing a good-quality pair of compression socks also helps reduce your risk.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Papatura Island?
The trick is to be well organized before you reach the airport security gate. That way, you’ll be boarding that plane to Papatura Island before you know it. Follow these helpful tips and get your vacation off to a terrific start:

  • Have your ID and boarding pass close by. They’ll be the first things you’ll be asked for by security.
  • Next up is the X-ray machine. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to set off the scanner’s alarm. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They’ll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
  • For just a few minutes, you’ll have to unplug from technology. Your laptop, phone and any other electronic devices will also need to be sent through the scanner.
  • Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or toothpaste, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
  • Lightweight sneakers are a practical footwear choice as you’re less likely to be asked to remove them when passing through security. Boots and heavier-style shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
  • Sharp or pointed items are not allowed on board. They’ll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked luggage.
