How to survive the flight to Zao?
Depending on where you’re coming from, your flight to Zao could be as easy as pie or it could go on forever. We’ve put together some tips that will help you start your next great escape on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The secret to having an awesome flight experience is to pack in advance. Start with the essentials: passport, travel docs, credit cards and daily medications. Next, bring on board items that’ll help while away those hours, like your laptop or a good read. It’s also smart to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Finally, be sure to chuck in toiletries like a toothbrush, lip balm and a fresh change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp objects, like your treasured Swiss Army knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as spray paint, flares and strong acids, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Comfort should be your number one priority when picking what to wear during your flight. Consider your footwear with care too, as swollen feet are quite common. Roomy, closed-toed shoes are your best bet.
  • You’ve probably heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by reduced mobility or inactivity. There are numerous ways to reduce your risk. Don a pair of compression tights or socks, drink lots of water and get your legs and feet moving. Walk the aisles of the cabin or perform some simple exercises in your seat.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Zao?
The answer is simple — be prepared. We’ve compiled some top tips for a stress-free trip through security. Look out Zao, here you come:

  • Airport security personnel first need to verify that you have a valid ID and travel documents before you can proceed any further. Have them close by, ready for inspection.
  • Next up is the X-ray machine. Remove anything on you that is likely to set off the scanner’s alarm. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They’ll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
  • All your electronic devices, including your phone and laptop, must also be scanned.
  • Remember 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 single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • Slip-on shoes are a good footwear choice as you’re less likely to be required to remove them when going through security. Hiking boots and other heavy shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
  • Sharp or pointed items are not allowed in the cabin. They’ll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked luggage.
