How to survive the flight to Bangka Island?
We’ve rounded up all the info you need to make your flight as pain-free as possible. Follow our tips and you’ll be hightailing it through airport security and having a ball in Bangka Island in no time at all.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • First and foremost, pack your passport, official ID, credit cards and vital medications. Next, you’ll need some extra in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling book and a laptop filled with your favourite shows are always good options. If you hope to take a quick snooze, a neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, find room for a few toiletry items to ensure you arrive at your destination feeling fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Sharp or pointed objects, like a Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and poisons, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The best way to ensure a comfortable flight is often as simple as your choice in clothes. Prepare for changes in temperature by layering up. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin starts to cool down. Shoes like high heels and sandals are best left in your checked suitcase. Even though they may be your favourites, go for flat, closed-toed footwear like sneakers. Your feet will appreciate it.
  • Unfortunately, one risk of long flights is developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by extended periods of inactivity. To prevent this, make the most of every opportunity to walk around the cabin and stretch your legs. Compression socks and tights are another great idea to help reduce this risk.

It’s easy — be prepared. We’ve compiled some handy tips and tricks for a fuss-free trip through airport security. Watch out Bangka Island, here you come:

  • First things first. Your travel ID and boarding pass will need to be presented to security personnel. Have them close by so you don’t hold up the queue.
  • After that, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Personal belongings like your jacket, belt and earphones need to go through the machine.
  • Your electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go on a tray to be scanned. Don’t worry though, you’ll be back online in no time.
  • Remove liquids and gels from your carry-on bag. They often need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
  • Slip-on shoes are a great footwear choice as you’re less likely to be asked to remove them when passing through security. Boots and other heavy shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
  • Airlines will not allow any sharp items or pocket knives in your carry-on baggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked luggage.
