Do you have any tips for my flight to Nelson?
We've rounded up all the info you need to make your flight an enjoyable experience. Follow our tips and tricks and you'll be zooming through airport security and seeing the best of Nelson in no time flat. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • Air travel can be a comfortable experience if you carry the right gear. Firstly, you'll need toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a spare pair of socks and a good novel. Secondly, make room in your carry-on bag for your laptop, a charger, any daily medications and perhaps a proper neck pillow too. Lastly, remember to take your passport, travel documents and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of prohibited items differs between air carriers, the general rule to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, drills, fuels and bleaching agents. Sporting equipment like bows and arrows, and objects that could harm other people, such as swords and guns, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Your priority is to be as comfortable as possible. Go for slip-on footwear, dress in loose, natural fibers and don't forget to take a sweater in case it gets cold in the cabin.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Make a point of walking around the cabin or do some gentle exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Nelson?
The secret is to be organized before you reach the airport security gate. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Nelson in next to no time. Follow these tips and get your vacation off to a great start:

  • First things first. Your travel documents and ID will need to be shown to airport security personnel. Keep them at hand to avoid fumbling around for them.
  • After that, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Items like your belt, coat and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
  • For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your phone, tablet and any other electronic gadgets must also go through the scanner.
  • Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or toothpaste, that you want to bring on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • Choosing your footwear wisely can save you valuable minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
  • Sharp or pointed items are not allowed on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked luggage.
