How to survive the flight to Papeete?
We’ve got the lowdown on how to make your flight as pain-free as possible. Follow our tips and tricks and you’ll be speeding through the airport and having a ball in Papeete in no time flat.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The trick to having a great flight experience is to pack in advance. So, let’s start with the basics: passport, boarding pass, bank cards and medications. Next, bring on board items that’ll help pass the time, like your laptop or a thrilling book. It’s also a wise idea to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earphones. Finally, be sure to chuck in toiletry items like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a spare change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of restricted items differs between airlines, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes box cutters, razor blades, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sporting equipment like golf clubs, and objects that could harm passengers, such as firearms and swords, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The narrow aisles of a plane are not the best place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfortable clothing and take a sweater as it tends to get cool inside the cabin during longer flights. Closed-toed, flat shoes are always a good idea too.
  • Unfortunately, one risk of long-distance flying is developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by extended periods of inactivity. To prevent this from happening, take every opportunity to walk around the cabin and stretch your legs. Compression socks and tights are another great idea to help lower your risk.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Papeete?
A little pre-planning before you arrive at the airport will help make your getaway to Papeete a piece of cake. Read through our handy hints for a swift journey past security:

  • First things first. Your boarding pass and passport will need to be inspected by airport security personnel. Keep them at hand so you don’t hold up the queue.
  • The X-ray machine is up next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to beep. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They’ll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
  • Your electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go through the machine for inspection. No need to worry though, you’ll be back online soon enough.
  • Can’t travel without your favourite 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 zip-lock bag, you can bring it with you in your carry-on baggage.
  • It’s also likely that you’ll be required to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a clever idea.
  • Airlines won’t allow any sharp items or pocket knives in your carry-on baggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked baggage.
