How to survive the flight to Nelson?
Wherever you’re jetting in from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you’re well prepared. Follow these handy tips that will help get your Nelson escape started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • First, pack in your passport, important documents, bank cards and daily medications. Next, you’ll want some extra in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling novel and a tablet crammed with your favorite shows are always good options. If you intend to catch more than just forty winks, a quality neck pillow and some noise-canceling headphones will also be useful. Finally, leave space for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes so you’ll step off the plane looking and feeling fresh.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray 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. Sharp or pointed objects, like your treasured pocket knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and poisons, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The long, narrow aisles of your airplane are no fashion runway. Don comfortable layers and remember to bring a cardigan as the temperature can drop in the cabin. Flat, enclosed shoes are also a sensible choice.
  • It’s likely you’ve heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of inactivity. There’s plenty you can do to minimize your risk. Don a pair of compression tights or socks, stay well hydrated and remember to keep your legs and feet moving. Walk around the cabin when possible or perform some simple exercises in your seat.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Nelson?
It’s easy — be prepared. We’ve compiled some useful tips for a fuss-free trip through security. Look out Nelson, here you come:

  • Be sure to have your boarding pass and ID within easy reach. They’re the first items you’ll be asked to show at security.
  • Your belt, coat, keys and other small items, like your earphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them before your turn.
  • All your electronic gadgets, including your phone and laptop, are also required to be scanned separately.
  • Remove all gels and liquids from your hand luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
  • There’s a chance you’ll be asked to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a good idea.
  • Sharp or pointed objects (like knives and scissors) are prohibited in the cabin. They’ll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked luggage.
