Do you have any tips for my flight to Tarakan?
Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Tarakan could be completely stress-free or it could go on forever. We've rounded up some handy hints that will help you start your next great adventure on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:
  • Firstly, and most importantly, put in your passport, important documents, wallet and daily medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy novel and a tablet crammed with your favourite movies are some fantastic options. If you intend to take a short snooze, a quality neck pillow and some noise-cancelling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, squeeze in a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes so you'll step off the plane looking and feeling fresh.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
  • Check carefully that you don't have a pocket knife hiding in the bottom of your hand luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive goods, like aerosols and matches, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).
What to wear on a flight:
  • Comfort should be your main concern when choosing what to wear on board. Loose clothing is a smart option, as are flat, closed-toe shoes.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by extended periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to walk around the cabin or do some simple exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.
How to get through airport security fast when flying to Tarakan?
The answer is — be prepared. We've rounded up some useful tips for a hassle-free trip through airport security. Watch out Tarakan, here you come:
  • Keep your passport and travel documents at hand. They're the first things you'll be asked to present to security.
  • Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your coat, belt, keys and other small items, like coins, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
  • For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your phone, tablet and any other electronic devices also need to be sent through the scanner.
  • Remember to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • The right choice of footwear can save you a few precious minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
  • Sharp items like knives can't be taken on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked bags.
