How to survive the flight to Whakapapa?
Depending on where you’re coming from, your journey to Whakapapa could be a piece of cake or it could go on forever. Below are some useful tips that will help you start your unforgettable escape on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The trick to having a hassle-free flight experience is to pack ahead. So, let’s start with the basics: passport, boarding pass, credit cards and any vital medications. Next, bring items that’ll help pass the time, like your laptop or a thrilling book. It’s also smart to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. Last but not least, don’t forget to chuck in toiletries like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a spare set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Check carefully that you don’t have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) lurking in one of the zippers of your carry-on luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive goods, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

  • The main aim is to be as comfortable as you can. Dress in loose, natural-fibre clothing and remember to pack a cardigan in case it gets cool. Opt for flat, slightly roomy shoes as it’s possible that your feet and ankles will swell a little during the journey. Leave the high heels and heavy boots in your luggage.
  • The result of sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a serious condition that can affect passengers on long-haul flights. The great news is there are numerous ways to significantly reduce your risk of developing it. Stay well hydrated, wander through the cabin as often as possible and wear compression socks or tights.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Whakapapa?
Being organised before you get to the airport can make your trip to Whakapapa easy and painless. Below you’ll find some top tips for a speedy journey past security:

  • Have your travel documents and ID handy. They’re the first items you’ll be asked for by security.
  • Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your belt, jacket, keys and other items in your pocket, like your headphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them before your turn arrives.
  • All electronic gadgets, including your tablet and phone, will also need to be separately scanned.
  • Any liquids or gels, such as lip balm or cologne, 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 litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • There’s a possibility that you’ll be asked to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a smart idea.
  • Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, put them in your checked suitcase. They won’t be allowed in the cabin.
