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.
