How to survive the flight to Kairakau?
Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you're well organized. We've compiled a list of handy hints that will help get your Kairakau escape started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The trick to having a worry-free flight experience is to pack in advance. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, official ID, credit cards and vital medications. Next, bring items that'll help while away those hours, like your laptop or a good book. It's also wise to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. And of course, don't forget to squeeze in toiletries like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a clean set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Put all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Sharp objects, like your beloved pocket knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, chemicals agents and poisons, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Your goal here is to be as comfortable as you can. Dress in loose, natural fibers and take a jacket in case it gets chilly in the cabin. Pick well-fitting, flat shoes as your feet may swell a little during the flight. Leave the stilettos and chunky boots in your checked baggage.
  • A serious condition called deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to poor circulation and inactivity. Doing foot and leg exercises while seated helps to prevent this from occurring. Wearing a quality pair of compression socks or tights also helps reduce the risk.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Kairakau?
Being organized before you arrive at the airport will help make your getaway to Kairakau a piece of cake. We've rounded up some handy hints for a speedy journey past security:

  • Airport security personnel first need to know that you have a valid passport and matching boarding pass before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them in your hand, ready for inspection.
  • Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your jacket, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like your headphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them before your turn.
  • For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, laptop and any other electronics will need to be sent through the scanner.
  • Traveling with a new perfume or cologne? As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, you're permitted to bring it with you in your carry-on.
  • Lightweight sneakers are a great footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when going through security. Boots and other heavy-style shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
  • Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them safely away in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
