How to survive the flight to Pom Pom Island?
Depending on where you’re coming from, your journey to Pom Pom Island could be completely painless or it could go on forever. Below are some useful travel tips that will help you start your next great adventure on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • Flying can be easy if you bring the right stuff. Firstly, you’ll want some basic toiletries, such as deodorant, toothpaste and a toothbrush, a spare pair of socks and a magazine or two. Secondly, leave space in your hand luggage for your laptop, a charger, any vital medications and perhaps a comfy neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, don’t forget to take your passport, travel docs and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Leave all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won’t be allowed on. Pointed or sharp objects, like a pocket knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosols and fireworks, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The best way to ensure a comfortable flight can be as simple as your choice in clothes. Prepare for temperature changes by bringing layers. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin starts to cool down. Shoes like high heels and sandals are best left for other occasions. Even though they may be your favourites, go for flat, closed-toed footwear like slip-ons. Your feet will thank you for it.
  • Unfortunately, a risk of long-distance travel is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To avoid this, take every opportunity to walk around and give your legs a stretch. Compression socks and tights are another simple way to help minimize this risk.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Pom Pom Island?
Being organised before your flight will help make your getaway to Pom Pom Island quick and painless. Here are some handy tips for a speedy journey past security:

  • First things first. Your boarding pass and travel ID will need to be inspected by airport security. Keep them handy so you don’t hold up the line.
  • The X-ray machine is up next. Remove anything on you that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They’ll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
  • For just a few moments, you’ll need to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic devices also need to be sent through the scanner.
  • Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or hand cream, that you want to take on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • There’s a chance you’ll need to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a wise idea.
  • Airlines won’t allow any sharp objects in your carry-on baggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked luggage.
