Do you have any tips for my flight to Nelson?
Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you're well prepared. Follow these top travel tips that will help get your Nelson holiday started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:
  • The secret to having a great flight experience is to be prepared. Start with the essentials: passport, travel documents, bank cards and vital medications. Next, bring items that'll help while away those hours, like some electronic gadgets or a juicy novel. It's also smart to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. And of course, be sure to pop in toiletry items like a toothbrush, deodorant and a spare change of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
  • Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated by security. Pointed or sharp objects, like your treasured pocket knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, bleaching agents and strong acids, are also banned.
What to wear on a flight:
  • Your priority is to be as comfortable as possible. Pick flat, closed-toe shoes, dress in loose, breathable clothing and don't forget to take a pullover in case it gets cold in the cabin.
  • The result of sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers on long-haul flights. Reduce the risks by drinking water, keeping your ankles and legs moving and wearing compression tights or socks.
How to get through airport security fast when flying to Nelson?
Being organised before you arrive at the airport can make your trip to Nelson a pleasure. We've compiled some top tips for a stress-free journey through security:
  • Be sure to have your passport and boarding pass close by. They're the first items you'll be asked to present to security.
  • The X-ray machine comes next. Remove anything on you that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
  • Your electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go through the machine for inspection. No need to worry though, you'll be back online in no time.
  • Can't travel without your favourite hand and nail cream? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, you're allowed to bring it with you in your carry-on luggage.
  • Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
  • Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, put them in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed on board.
