No matter where you're coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you're well prepared. We've compiled a list of essential travel tips that will help get your Tristan da Cunha vacation started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:
  • The trick to having a hassle-free flight experience is to pack in advance. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, official ID, credit cards and important medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you occupied, like some electronic gadgets or a good book. You'll also want to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. Finally, don't forget to toss in toiletries like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a clean T-shirt.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
  • While the list of banned items differs between air carriers, the general guide to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, drills, fireworks and fuel. Sporting equipment like bows and arrows, and objects that could harm passengers, such as swords and guns, aren't allowed in the cabin either.
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, enclosed 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 on long-distance flights. Reduce the risks by drinking water, keeping your legs moving and wearing compression socks or tights.
How to get through airport security fast when flying to Tristan da Cunha?
The trick is to be organized before you reach the security gate. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Tristan da Cunha before you know it. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a terrific start:
  • Airport security personnel first need to verify that you have a valid passport and travel documents before anything else. Have them close by, ready for inspection.
  • The X-ray machine comes next. Remove anything on you that is likely to beep. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
  • For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your phone, tablet and any other electronic devices must also go through the scanner.
  • Any gels or liquids, such as shampoo or hairspray, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • There's a chance you'll need to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a good idea.
  • Airlines won't allow any sharp objects in the cabin. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked luggage.
