How to survive the flight to Goodnews Bay?
Depending on where you’re coming from, your trip to Goodnews Bay could be simple and straightforward or it could drag on forever. Here are some handy tips that will help you start your next big adventure on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The secret to having a worry-free travel experience is to plan ahead. So, let’s start with the essentials: passport, travel docs, cash and any vital medications. Next, bring items that’ll help keep you occupied, like your laptop or a thrilling novel. It’s also a wise idea to pack your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of headphones. And of course, be sure to chuck in toiletry items like a toothbrush, lip balm and a fresh change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of restricted items differs between airlines, the general rule of thumb is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, pocket knives, spray paint and fireworks. Sports equipment like bows and arrows, and objects that could harm passengers, such as firearms and swords, won’t be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The goal here is to make yourself as comfortable as possible. Don layers of natural-fiber clothing and remember to bring a sweater just in case you get chilly. Opt for a pair of roomy, flat shoes as your feet may swell a little during the journey. Leave the high heels and heavy hiking boots in your main luggage.
  • Caused by sustained periods of immobility, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a condition that can affect passengers during long flights. But the good news is there are ways to reduce your risk of developing it. Stay hydrated, wander through the cabin wherever possible and wear compression socks or tights.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Goodnews Bay?
Being prepared before your flight will make your trip to Goodnews Bay a piece of cake. Check out our useful tips and tricks for a speedy journey through security:

  • First things first. Your passport and travel documents will need to be presented to airport security personnel. Have them close by so you don’t have to dig around for them.
  • After that, both you and your hand luggage will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that might trigger the alarms. Items like your belt, jacket and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
  • For just a few minutes, you’ll need to unplug from technology. Your laptop, phone and any other electronics also need to be sent through the scanner.
  • Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or hairspray, that you want to bring on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
  • It’s also possible you’ll be required to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a smart idea.
  • Sharp or pointed objects (like knives and scissors) can’t be taken on board. They’ll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked luggage.
