Do you have any tips for my flight to Matahi?
Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you prepare well enough. Follow these handy hints that will get your Matahi holiday started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:
  • Firstly, and most importantly, pack in your passport, important documents, cash and vital medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling book and a tablet filled with your favourite movies are some terrific options. If you hope to take a short nap, a quality neck pillow and some noise-cancelling headphones will also be useful. Finally, leave some space for a toothbrush and some facial wipes to ensure you arrive at your destination looking fresh and ready to go.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
  • Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated. Sharp or pointed objects, like your precious pocket knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as spray paint, flares and fuels, are also not allowed.
What to wear on a flight:
  • Comfort should be your top priority when deciding what to wear during your flight. Loose clothing is a smart option, as are flat, slightly roomy shoes.
  • Caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers on long-haul flights. Reduce the risks by staying hydrated, keeping your lower limbs moving and wearing compression socks or tights.
How to get through airport security fast when flying to Matahi?
A little pre-planning before you arrive at the airport can make your trip to Matahi quick and painless. Below you'll find some handy hints for a speedy journey through security:
  • Airport security personnel first need to determine that you have a valid ID and matching travel documents before you can proceed any further. Have them ready to show.
  • Next up, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Personal belongings such as your jacket, belt and earphones need to go through the machine.
  • Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go through the machine to be scanned. Don't worry, you'll be back online in no time.
  • Remember to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
  • The right choice of footwear can save you several minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
  • Sharp or pointed items are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked baggage.
