Do you have any tips for my flight to Rakops?
Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Rakops could be a breeze or it could go on forever. Below are some tips that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • A plane ride can be a pleasure if you pack the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want a few basic toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a clean set of clothes and a good read. Next, find room in your hand luggage for your phone, tablet and chargers, any vital medications and perhaps a comfy neck pillow as well. Lastly, don't forget to bring your passport, travel papers and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated by security. Sharp objects, like your beloved Swiss Army knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosols and strong acids, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Your main priority is to feel as comfortable as you can. Pick shoes that are easy to pull on and off, dress in loose, breathable clothing and don't forget to bring a sweater in case it gets chilly in the cabin.
  • Caused by sustained periods of immobility, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers on long-haul flights. Reduce the risks by drinking water, keeping your feet and legs moving and wearing compression socks or tights.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Rakops?
It's easy — be prepared. We've compiled some tips and tricks for a fuss-free trip through security. Watch out Rakops, here you come:

  • Security personnel first need to check that you have a valid ID and matching boarding pass before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them ready to show.
  • Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your coat, belt, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your earphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as your turn draws near.
  • All electronic gadgets, including your laptop and phone, will also need to be scanned.
  • Any gels or liquids, such as shampoo or hand cream, that you want to take on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • The right choice of footwear can save you valuable minutes. Boots and heavy shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on sneakers are usually not.
  • 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 in the cabin.
