How to get through airport security fast when traveling to Rotorua
Your journey to Rotorua starts as soon as you've satisfied all the security checks. We've summarized a few helpful tips and hints to ensure you get through quickly:

  • Keep your passport and boarding pass in an easily accessible place. They'll be the first things you'll be asked for by security staff.
  • It's useful to know that metal belt buckles can set off the body scanner's alarms. If you have one on, you may be told to take it off before continuing.
  • Laptops need to be taken out of their carry bags and placed in a tray before being X-rayed.
  • When you approach the security checkpoint, you'll be asked to put all gels, liquids and creams in a separate bin for inspection. Make sure they're all stored in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and sealed in a clear zip-lock bag.
  • Airport security staff may instruct you to take off your shoes for the body scanner. Pick a pair that slip off easily. There's nothing more tiresome than having to do your laces up over and over again.
  • Scissors and multi-tools are prohibited inside the aircraft. Stash them away in your checked luggage to avoid forfeiting them at the airport security checkpoint.
