How to survive the flight to Timbunke?
We've rounded up all the info you need to make your journey as enjoyable as possible. Follow our tips and you'll be cruising through the airport and having a ball in Timbunke before you know it.What to pack in your hand luggage:
  • Air travel can be a stress-free experience if you take the right gear. Firstly, you'll need toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a clean set of clothes and a good book. Secondly, find a spot in your carry-on bag for your laptop, a charger, any daily medications and perhaps a neck pillow too. Lastly, remember to take your passport, travel docs and your credit cards.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
  • Leave all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Pointed or sharp objects, like your precious Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, chemicals agents and gasoline, are also restricted.
What to wear on a flight:
  • Comfort really should be your priority when choosing what to wear on your flight. Consider your footwear choice carefully too, as swollen feet can be a side effect of flying. Slightly roomy, flat shoes are always a smart option.
  • Unfortunately, a risk of long-haul flights is developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To avoid this, take every opportunity to stretch your legs and walk around the cabin. Compression socks and tights are another great idea to help minimize this risk.
How to get through airport security fast when flying to Timbunke?
Being organised before your flight can make your getaway to Timbunke easy and painless. Below you'll find some handy tips and tricks for a speedy journey through security:
  • Your travel ID and boarding pass will need to be shown to security personnel. Have them easily accessible so you don't have to dig around for them.
  • The X-ray machine comes next. Remove anything on you that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
  • All electronic devices, including your phone and laptop, are also required to be separately scanned.
  • Remove liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
  • It's also possible you'll need to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a good idea.
  • Airlines will not allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in your carry-on baggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked baggage.
