How to survive the flight to Wamena?
Wherever you’re coming from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you’ve prepared well enough. Check out these top travel tips that will get your Wamena escape started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • Flying can be a great experience if you’ve got all the right stuff. Firstly, you’ll need basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a spare change of clothes and something to read. Next, make room in your carry-on bag for your mobile phone, a charger, your medications and maybe a neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, remember to take your passport, travel documents and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of prohibited items can differ between air carriers, the general rule to follow is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, pocket knives, spray paint and flares. Sports equipment like baseball bats, and objects that could injure passengers, such as firearms and swords, can’t come on board with you 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 it can get chilly inside the cabin on long-haul flights. Slightly roomy, flat shoes are also a wise idea.
  • Unfortunately, a risk of long flights is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged inactivity. To prevent this from happening, make the most of every opportunity to stretch your legs and walk around the cabin. Compression tights and socks are another simple way to help lower your risk.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Wamena?
As seasoned travelers know, the secret is to be well prepared before you arrive at airport security. That way, you’ll be boarding that plane to Wamena in no time flat. Follow these helpful tips and get your vacation off to a great start:

  • Have your passport and boarding pass someplace easily accessible. They’re the first items you’ll be asked to present to security.
  • The X-ray machine is up next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They’ll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
  • Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also need to go on a tray to be scanned. Don’t worry, you’ll be back online soon enough.
  • Want to bring along your favorite hand cream? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it’s stored in a clear zip-close bag, you’re allowed to bring it with you on board.
  • There’s a good chance you’ll be asked to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a clever idea.
  • Airlines will not allow any sharp objects in your hand luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked luggage.
