How to survive the flight to Gan Island?
Wherever you’re jetting in from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you’re well prepared. We’ve made a list of handy tips and tricks that will help get your Gan Island escape started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • First and foremost, pack in your passport, important documents, wallet and medications. Next, you’ll want some in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling book and a phone crammed with your favorite shows are always good options. If you intend to catch up on some sleep, a quality neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes so you’ll step off the plane feeling fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of prohibited items differs between airlines, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, knives, spray paint and flares. Sports equipment like golf clubs, and objects that could harm passengers, such as swords and guns, aren’t allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Your goal here is to be as comfortable as possible. Layer up with loose, natural fibers and take a sweater in case it gets chilly in the cabin. Pick a pair of roomy, flat shoes as your feet may swell a little during the journey. Leave the stilettos and heavy boots in your luggage.
  • Unfortunately, one risk of flying long-haul is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity. To prevent this from happening, make the most of every opportunity to wander around the cabin. Compression socks and tights are another easy way to help lower your risk.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Gan Island?
Being organized before your flight can make your getaway to Gan Island easy and painless. Below you’ll find some handy tips for a stress-free journey through security:

  • Security personnel first need to verify that you have a valid ID and matching travel documents before you can proceed any further. Keep them within easy reach.
  • Next up is the X-ray machine. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to set off the scanner’s alarm. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They’ll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
  • Your electronic gadgets like laptops and phones will also have to go through the machine to be scanned. Don’t worry though, you’ll be back online before you know it.
  • Traveling with your favorite hand cream? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it’s stored in a zip-lock bag, you can keep it with you in your carry-on bag.
  • There’s a good chance you’ll be required to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a good idea.
  • Airlines won’t allow any sharp objects to come on board with you. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked luggage.
