Do you have any tips for my flight to Tambunan?
If you're poorly prepared, air travel can be challenging. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these handy hints for a pleasant start to your holiday in Tambunan. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • A plane trip can be a pleasure if you take the right things. First of all you'll need toiletry items, such as deodorant, toothpaste and a toothbrush, a clean set of clothes and a few magazines. Next, leave space in your hand luggage for your laptop, a charger, your medications and maybe a comfy neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, be sure to bring your passport, travel documents and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Double-check that you don't have sharp or pointed objects lurking in your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable substances, like aerosols and matches, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

  • The aisles of an airplane aren't the place for a fashion parade. Wear layers and go for shoes that are flat, roomy and easy to pull on and off.
  • Most travellers are aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of sitting. To lower your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression tights or socks and keep your feet and legs moving.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Tambunan?
A little pre-planning before you arrive at the airport can make your getaway to Tambunan easy and painless. Below you'll find some handy tips for a stress-free journey past security:

  • Security personnel first need to know that you have a valid passport and matching boarding pass before you're allowed to proceed any further. Keep them close by.
  • Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your coat, belt, keys and other small items, like your headphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them before your turn.
  • For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic gadgets must also be sent through the scanner.
  • Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or toothpaste, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
  • Slip-on shoes are a practical footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Big boots and heavier-style shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
  • 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 luggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
