How to get through airport security fast when traveling to Balikpapan
If you like the thought of spending more time at the airport cafes and less time navigating your way through security on your way to Balikpapan, just follow these handy tips:

  • Make sure you know the location of your travel ID and boarding pass. You don’t want to hold up the queue when you’re asked to present them.
  • You’ll have to stop the music for a little while. Headphones need to be taken off and placed in a tray for X-raying. The same goes for items such as belts and heavy jackets.
  • Everyday electronics such as laptops, phones and cameras are always put through the X-ray machine separately. Be sure you can get to them quickly.
  • When it comes to traveling with liquids or gels, all passengers are allowed a quart-sized clear zip-lock bag to store containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).
  • Construction boots and other heavy shoes are usually X-rayed at the security checkpoint. Think about wearing lightweight sneakers instead.
  • Multi-tools and corkscrews are prohibited from entering the aircraft. Stash them away in your checked luggage to avoid forfeiting them at the airport security checkpoint.

How to find cheap flights

What is the best day to buy a plane ticket?

Airfares offered on Friday tend to be the cheapest, according to flight demand on Travelocity.ca in 2021. Purchasing your airfares on a Thursday or Saturday can also provide better value, however our advice if you’re looking to save money is to avoid booking on a Wednesday or Sunday. Our data shows that those two days have the highest ticket values on average, so keep this in mind if you’re browsing flight deals.

 

What are the cheapest days to fly?

Frequent travellers may already know this, earlier in the week is often the cheapest time to fly. Flights departing on a Monday are the cheapest of the week. Since flights towards the middle of the week tend to be more popular, this causes the prices to rise. This is why, on average, airfares booked on Travelocity.ca in 2021 were most expensive for Wednesday departures.

 

How far in advance can you book a flight?

Here’s the deal: It is typically possible to start comparing international airfares on Travelocity.ca up to 12 months in advance. However, it does depend on the carrier as not all airlines release their prices that far out. According to our 2021 flight demand trends, last minute planners can still bag a bargain with some of the cheapest fares appearing 2-4 weeks prior to their travel dates.

*According to flight demand on Travelocity.ca from January to December 2021. Savings are subject to change and may vary depending on selections made.
