Do you have any tips for my flight to Timika?
We've rounded up all the info you need to make your journey a pleasant experience. Follow our top tips and you'll be cruising through the airport and exploring Timika in no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The secret to having a stress-free flight experience is to plan ahead. So, let's start with the basics: passport, boarding pass, credit cards and daily medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you entertained, like some electronic devices or a juicy novel. It's also a wise idea to pack your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones. Finally, be sure to chuck in toiletry items like a toothbrush, deodorant and a clean set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Make sure you don't have a Swiss Army knife lurking in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive products, such as fuel and fireworks, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

  • Comfort should be your number one priority when deciding what to wear on board. Loose clothing is a smart choice, as are roomy, closed-toe shoes.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clotting due to poor circulation, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Timika?
The secret is to be prepared before you get to the security gate. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Timika in no time at all. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a spectacular start:

  • Your travel ID and boarding pass will need to be shown to airport security. Have them close by so you don't hold up the line.
  • Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your belt, jacket, 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 easier by removing them before your turn arrives.
  • All electronic devices, including your phone and tablet, must also be scanned.
  • Any gels or liquids, such as toothpaste or perfume, that you want to bring on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
  • Slip-on shoes are a great footwear choice as you're less likely to be required to remove them when passing through security. Boots and other heavy shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
  • Sharp or pointed objects (like knives and scissors) are not allowed on board. They'll be seized at security, so put them in your checked baggage.
