How to survive the flight to Cole Bay?
If you’re not prepared, travelling can be testing. But there’s no need to panic. Follow these handy tips for a worry-free start to your getaway in Cole Bay.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • It’s easy — first, pack in your passport, official ID, bank cards and vital medications. Next, you’ll need some in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy novel and a tablet filled with your favourite movies are some terrific options. If you hope to catch a few z’s, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, find room for a few toiletry items so you’ll arrive at your destination looking fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Sharp or pointed objects, like your treasured Swiss Army knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosols and fuels, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The main aim is to feel as comfortable as you can. Don layers of breathable clothing and don’t forget to pack a jacket in case you get cold. Go for a pair of roomy, flat shoes as your feet may swell during the flight. Leave the stilettos and heavy boots in your checked baggage.
  • Unfortunately, one risk of flying long-haul is developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To prevent this from happening, make the most of every opportunity to walk around the cabin and stretch your legs. Compression tights and socks are another easy way to help lower your risk.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Cole Bay?
The secret is to be well organised before you get to the security gate. That way, you’ll be hopping onto that plane to Cole Bay before you know it. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a fantastic start:

  • Your ID and travel documents will need to be inspected by security personnel. Keep them someplace accessible so you don’t hold up the line.
  • Next up is the X-ray machine. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They’ll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
  • For just a few moments, you’ll have to unplug from technology. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic devices must also go through the scanner.
  • Remove all liquids and gels from your carry-on bag. 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 in a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • Slip-on shoes are a great footwear choice as you’re less likely to be asked to remove them when passing through security. Safety boots and other heavy-style shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
  • Airlines won’t allow any sharp or pointed objects in your hand luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked luggage.
