Cheap Flights to Punaauia

Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you've prepared well. We've compiled a list of handy travel tips that will help get your Punaauia escape started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Air travel can be a stress-free experience if you pack the right gear. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletries, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare set of clothes and something to read. Next, find a spot in your bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, medications and maybe a cosy neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, be sure to take your passport, travel documents and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have a sharp object hiding in one of the compartments of your hand luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable goods, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• The aisles of a plane are no place for a fashion parade. Dress in comfortable layers and pick shoes that are flat, roomy and easy to slip on and off.
• The result of sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers during long-distance flights. Reduce the risks by drinking water, keeping your legs and feet moving and wearing compression socks to help your circulation.

A little pre-planning before you arrive at the airport can make your trip to Punaauia a pleasure. Read through our handy tips and tricks for a stress-free journey through security:

• Be sure to have your boarding pass and ID within close reach. They're the first items you'll be asked for by airport security.
• After that, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that might set the alarms off. Items like your belt, coat and earphones need to go through the machine.
• Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go through the machine for inspection. Don't worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Can't travel without your favourite hand and nail cream? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, it's fine to bring with you in your carry-on.
• The right choice of footwear can save you a few precious minutes. Boots and heavy shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes usually aren't.
• Knives and other sharp items are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so put them in your checked baggage.
