Take a peek at these essential travel tips that will help get your Lihir Island holiday started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage: > > > > - The secret to having a worry-free flight experience is to pack in advance. So, let's start with the basics: passport, travel docs, credit cards and important medications. Next, bring items that'll help keep you entertained, like some electronic gadgets or a magazine. It's also wise to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones. And of course, be sure to toss in toiletries like a toothbrush, deodorant and a fresh set of clothes. > > > > Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage: > > > > - Check carefully that you don't have sharp or pointed objects hiding in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive substances, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). > > > > What to wear on a flight: > > > > - Comfort should be your highest priority when choosing what to wear during your flight. Loose clothing is a smart option, as are flat, slip-on shoes. > - Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-distance flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to poor circulation and inactivity, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks or tights. ### How to get through airport security fast when flying to Lihir Island? > A little pre-planning before your flight will help make your getaway to Lihir Island a pleasure. Read through our handy tips and tricks for a speedy journey through security: > > > > - Security personnel first need to see that you have a valid ID and boarding pass before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them in your hand, ready for inspection. > - Next up, both you and your hand luggage will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Items such as your belt, coat and earphones will be required to go through the machine. > - For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your tablet, phone and any other electronics must also be sent through the scanner. > - Remove liquids and gels from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag. > - Choosing your footwear wisely can save you a few precious minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on sneakers are usually not. > - Sharp items are not allowed on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked suitcase. ## Book with confidence ### Expedia flights to Lihir Island Searching for cheap flights to Lihir Island?
