And that’s not all there is. Bring the sunscreen and spend the afternoon in the water, tasting the salty air at Tahunanui Beach Reserve.
How to get through airport security fast when traveling to Nelson
Your trip to Nelson kicks off as soon as you’ve satisfied all the security checks. Here are a few useful tips to make sure you get through quickly:

  • Airport security will request to see your travel ID and boarding pass at the checkpoint. Keep them in a convenient place, ready for inspection.
  • Be aware that belts with metal buckles can set off the body scanner’s alarms. If you’re wearing one, you may be asked to take it off before proceeding.
  • All laptops must be taken out of their protective carry bags and placed in a tray before being scanned.
  • Flying with a new perfume? As long as it’s no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it’s stored in a clear resealable plastic bag, you can keep it with you in your hand luggage.
  • Construction boots and other cumbersome shoes are likely to be X-rayed at the security checkpoint. It might be wise to wear simple sneakers instead.
  • Some destinations have strict biosecurity laws. Think about where you’re off to and whether or not you’re permitted to fly with fresh fruit and meat.
