How to survive the flight to Whangarei?
If you’re not prepared, airports and flying can be tough. But don’t hit the panic button just yet. Follow these helpful hints and enjoy a trouble-free start to your holiday in Whangarei.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • First, put in your passport, travel docs, cash and daily medications. Next, you’ll need some in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling book and a tablet crammed with your favourite shows are some great options. If you intend to take a short snooze, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, leave some space for a toothbrush and some facial wipes to ensure you hop off the plane feeling fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of banned items differs between air carriers, the general rule to follow is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes box cutters, razor blades, spray paint and fireworks. Sports equipment like golf clubs, and objects that could harm passengers, such as pepper spray and guns, can’t come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Comfort should always be your prime concern when picking what to wear on board. Consider your footwear with care too, as swelling of the feet and ankles are quite common. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are always a sensible way to go.
  • Unfortunately, a risk of long-haul flights is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity. To prevent this, make the most of every opportunity to walk around the cabin and stretch your legs. Compression tights and socks are also a great idea to help lower your risk.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Whangarei?
The secret is to be organised before you get to the airport security gate. That way, you’ll be boarding that plane to Whangarei in no time at all. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a flying start:

  • First things first. Your travel documents and passport will need to be inspected by airport security personnel. Keep them within easy reach so you don’t hold up the queue.
  • Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your coat, belt, keys and other contents of your pockets, like coins, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them before your turn arrives.
  • Your electronic gadgets like phones and laptops will also have to go on a tray to be scanned. No need to worry though, you’ll be back online in no time.
  • Don’t forget to remove liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
  • It’s also possible you’ll be asked to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a good idea.
  • Airlines won’t allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in your carry-on luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, check them in.
