How to get through airport security fast when traveling to Kaikoura
These handy hints and tips about airport security procedures will save you plenty of time on your journey to Kaikoura:

  • Security personnel will expect to see your boarding pass and passport upon arrival. Store them in an accessible place, so they're all ready for inspection.
  • Be aware that metal belt buckles can set off the body scanner's alarms. If you're wearing one, you may be told to remove it before continuing.
  • Electronic goods such as laptops, tablets and phones need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Be sure you can get to them quickly.
  • When you approach the security checkpoint, you'll be asked to place all creams, liquids and gels in a separate tray for inspection. Make sure they're all stored in containers smaller than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and sealed in a clear zip-lock bag.
  • Give some thought to the type of footwear you want to travel in. Slippers are great because they're super easy to step out of when you're at the security checkpoint. Try wearing some on your next journey!
  • Some destinations have strict quarantine laws. Think about where you're headed to and whether or not you can travel with unpackaged foods.
