How to survive the flight to Papao?
We’ve rounded up all the info you need to make your journey an enjoyable experience. Follow our insider tips and you’ll be cruising through airport security and exploring Papao in no time.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The trick to having a hassle-free flight experience is to pack in advance. First up, the essentials: passport, travel docs, cash and important medications. Next, bring on board items that’ll help pass the time, like some electronic gadgets or a thrilling novel. It’s also wise to pack your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones. And of course, be sure to pop in toiletries like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a fresh change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Double-check that you don’t have a pocket knife hiding in the bottom of your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive products, like aerosols and matches, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

  • The answer to a comfortable flight can be as simple as your choice of clothing. Prepare for changes in temperature by layering up. That way you’ll stay nice and warm if the cabin gets chilly. Shoes like high heels and sandals are best left for other occasions. Instead, opt for flat, closed-toed footwear like slip-ons. Your feet will appreciate it.
  • Unfortunately, a risk of long-distance travel is developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged inactivity. To avoid this, take every opportunity to stretch your legs and walk around the cabin. Compression tights and socks are another easy way to help minimize this risk.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Papao?
The answer is simple — be organised. We’ve pulled together some useful tips for a hassle-free trip through security. Watch out Papao, here you come:

  • Be sure to keep your boarding pass and ID close by. They’ll be the first things you’ll be asked for by security.
  • Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your belt, coat, keys and other items in your pocket, like your earphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as your turn draws near.
  • For just a few minutes, you’ll need to unplug from technology. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic devices will need to go through the scanner.
  • Remove all liquids and gels from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • The right choice of footwear can save you several minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
  • Airlines won’t allow any sharp or pointed objects in the cabin. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked luggage.
