Do you have any tips for my flight to Pukapuka?
No matter where you're coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you've prepared well. Check out these handy tips and tricks that will get your Pukapuka escape started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • Flying can be easy if you bring the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want some basic toiletries, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a clean set of clothes and a good novel. Secondly, find a spot in your carry-on bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, any vital medications and maybe a blow-up neck pillow as well. Lastly, be sure to bring your passport, travel documents and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated by security. Sharp or pointed objects, like your precious pocket knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosols and strong acids, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Go for comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes in the cabin by layering up, and wear slightly roomy, flat footwear like sneakers.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by extended periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Walk around the cabin and give your legs a stretch or do some gentle exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Pukapuka?
Being organised before you arrive at the airport will help make your getaway to Pukapuka a pleasure. We've rounded up some handy tips for a speedy journey through security:

  • First things first. Your travel documents and ID will need to be presented to airport security personnel. Keep them someplace accessible so you don't have to dig around for them.
  • Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your coat, belt, keys and other items in your pocket, like your headphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
  • All electronic gadgets, including your phone and laptop, must also be scanned separately.
  • Remove liquids and gels from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
  • There's a good chance you'll be required to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a wise idea.
  • Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them safely away in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
