How to survive the flight to Rakahanga?
No matter where you’re coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you’ve prepared well enough. We’ve compiled a list of handy tips and tricks that will help get your Rakahanga escape started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The trick to having an awesome flight experience is to pack ahead. So, let’s start with the essentials: passport, travel docs, bank cards and important medications. Next, take on board items that’ll help keep you entertained, like some electronic gadgets or a good book. You’ll also want to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Last but not least, don’t forget to chuck in toiletries like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a clean T-shirt.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Make sure you don’t have a Swiss Army knife lurking in your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable goods, such as bleach and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

  • Comfort really should be your priority when choosing what to wear on board. Consider your footwear with care too, as swollen feet are a common occurrence. Roomy, closed-toed shoes work well.
  • Unfortunately, a risk of long-distance flying is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To prevent this, take every opportunity to walk around and give your legs a stretch. Compression socks and tights are another simple way to help reduce this risk.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Rakahanga?
Being organised before you get to the airport can make your trip to Rakahanga quick and painless. Below are some handy tips and tricks for a speedy journey through security:

  • Airport security personnel first need to know that you have a valid passport and boarding pass before anything else. Have them close by, ready for inspection.
  • Your belt, jacket, keys and other small items, like coins, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them as your turn draws near.
  • For just a few moments, you’ll need to unplug from technology. Your phone, tablet and any other electronic gadgets must also be sent through the scanner.
  • Want to bring along your favourite cologne? Not a problem. As long as it’s in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it’s stored in a zip-close bag, it’s OK to bring with you on board.
  • Slip-on shoes are a good footwear choice as you’re less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Boots and other heavy-style shoes are often 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 luggage. They won’t be allowed in the cabin.
