How to survive the flight to Port Moresby?
We’ve got the lowdown on how to make your journey as pain-free as possible. Follow our top tips and you’ll be hightailing it through airport security and exploring Port Moresby in next to no time.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • A plane trip can be a pleasure if you pack the right stuff. First things first, you’ll need basic toiletries, such as toothpaste, a toothbrush and some deodorant, a spare pair of socks and a few magazines. Secondly, find a spot in your hand luggage for your electronic gadgets, chargers, any medications and maybe a proper neck pillow too. Lastly, remember to take your passport, travel docs and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of prohibited items differs between airlines, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes box cutters, razor blades, spray paint and fireworks. Sports equipment like golf clubs, and objects that could injure passengers, such as swords and batons, aren’t allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The best way to ensure a comfortable flight can be as simple as your choice of clothes. Prepare for temperature changes by bringing layers. That way you’ll stay nice and warm if the cabin gets chilly. Shoes like flip flops and heels are best left in your suitcase. Even though they may be your favourites, opt for flat, closed-toed footwear like sneakers. Your feet will appreciate it.
  • The result of lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a condition that can affect some passengers during long flights. The great news is there are numerous ways to significantly reduce your risk of developing it. Keep your fluids up, get up and walk around the cabin as often as you can and wear compression socks to help improve your circulation.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Port Moresby?
Being prepared before you get to the airport can make your trip to Port Moresby easy and painless. Here are some useful tips and tricks for a speedy journey through security:

  • Security personnel first need to make sure that you have a valid passport and matching travel documents before you can proceed any further. Have them ready for inspection.
  • The X-ray machine comes next. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to beep. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They’ll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
  • All electronic devices, including your laptop and phone, are also required to be scanned separately.
  • Don’t forget to remove gels and liquids from your hand luggage. They usually 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 in a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • Lightweight sneakers are a practical footwear choice as you’re less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Boots and other bulky shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
  • Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them in your checked baggage. They won’t be allowed on board.
