How to survive the flight to Wellington?

Accepted Answer

Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you prepare well enough. Follow these top travel tips that will get your Wellington vacation started on the right note.

What to pack in your hand luggage:

A plane ride can be a stress-free experience if you bring the right things. First of all you'll need basic toiletries, such as deodorant, toothpaste and a toothbrush, a fresh change of clothes and a good book. Secondly, make room in your bag for your mobile phone, a charger, your medications and maybe a proper neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, don't forget to take your passport, travel documents and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

While the list of banned items can differ between airlines, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, knives, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sporting equipment like hockey sticks, and items that could harm other people, such as firearms and swords, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

Comfort should always be your priority when deciding what to wear on board. Consider your choice of footwear carefully too, as swollen ankles and feet are a common occurrence. Shoes which are flat and slightly roomy are always a good idea.
Most travelers are aware of DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. There's plenty you can do to reduce your risk. Wear a pair of compression socks or tights, drink lots of water often and keep your legs and feet moving. Do a few laps of the cabin or perform exercises in your seat.

Question 11

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Wellington?

Accepted Answer

It's simple — be prepared. We've rounded up some handy tips and tricks for a hassle-free trip through security. Watch out Wellington, here you come:

Be sure to keep your travel documents and ID within close reach. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to show at airport security.
Next up, both you and your hand luggage will be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that might trigger the alarms. Items such as your belt, coat and earphones need to go through the machine.
Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go through the machine for inspection. Don't worry, you'll be back online in no time.
Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or toothpaste, that you want to take on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), zip-lock bag.
The right choice of footwear can save you valuable minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
Pocket knives and other sharp items are not allowed on board. They'll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked luggage.
