How to survive the flight to Kobuk?
Wherever you’re jetting in from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you prepare well enough. We’ve made a list of handy travel tips that will get your Kobuk escape started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The secret to having a pain-free flight experience is to pack ahead. First up, the essentials: passport, travel docs, cash and important medications. Next, take on board items that’ll help while away those hours, like some electronic devices or a juicy novel. It’s also a wise idea to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of headphones. And of course, be sure 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 compartments of your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable substances, such as fuel and matches, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

  • The best way to ensure a comfortable flight is as simple as your choice of clothing. Prepare for changes in temperature by bringing layers. That way you’ll stay nice and warm if the cabin gets too cold. Shoes like high heels and sandals are best left in your suitcase. Even though they may be your favourites, opt for flat, closed-toed footwear like sneakers. Your feet will thank you for it.
  • Unfortunately, one risk of long-distance travel is developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by extended periods of inactivity. To avoid this, make the most of every opportunity to walk around the cabin and stretch your legs. Compression tights and socks are another easy way to help lower your risk.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Kobuk?
A little pre-planning before you get to the airport will help make your getaway to Kobuk a pleasure. Here are some useful tips and tricks for a swift journey through security:

  • Security personnel first need to see that you have a valid ID and matching travel documents before anything else. Have them close by, ready for inspection.
  • Next up is the X-ray machine. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They’ll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
  • Your electronic devices like laptops and phones will also need to go on a tray to be scanned. No need to worry though, you’ll be back online in no time.
  • Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or hairspray, 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 litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • Slip-on shoes are a great footwear choice as you’re less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Hiking boots and other heavy shoes are usually subjected to extra 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 baggage. They won’t be allowed on board.
