How to survive the flight to Wanaka?
Depending on where you’re coming from, your journey to Wanaka could be simple and straightforward or it could go on forever. We’ve compiled some useful travel tips that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • Flying can be easy if you’ve got all the right things. First things first, you’ll need basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a spare set of clothes and a good read. Secondly, leave space in your hand luggage for your laptop, a charger, your medications and perhaps a cosy neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, don’t forget to bring your passport, travel documents and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of restricted items can differ between air carriers, the general rule to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, drills, fireworks and fuel. Sporting equipment like hockey sticks, and items that could harm passengers, such as swords and batons, won’t be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The main aim is to make yourself as comfortable as you can. Layer up with loose, natural fibers and don’t forget to pack a jacket in case you get cold. Pick well-fitting, flat shoes as it’s possible that your feet and ankles will swell a little during the flight. Leave the stilettos and heavy boots in your checked luggage.
  • A condition known as DVT (deep vein thrombosis) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It results from blood clots forming due to poor circulation and inactivity. Walking around the cabin and doing regular leg and foot exercises while seated is a great way to prevent this happening. Wearing a pair of compression socks or tights can also help.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Wanaka?
It’s all about being prepared. We’ve pulled together some handy tips and tricks for an easy trip through airport security. Look out Wanaka, here you come:

  • Airport security personnel first need to know that you have a valid ID and travel documents before anything else. Have them ready to show.
  • Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, jacket, keys and other small items, like coins, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them before your turn.
  • Your electronic gadgets like phones and laptops will also have to go on a tray to be scanned. Don’t worry though, you’ll be back online before you know it.
  • Want to bring along your favourite cologne or perfume? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it’s stored in a zip-close bag, it’s OK to bring with you in your carry-on.
  • Slip-on shoes are a good footwear choice as you’re less likely to have to remove them when going through security. Hiking boots and other bulky shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
  • Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them safely away in your checked luggage. They won’t be allowed on board.
