How to get through airport security fast when traveling to Kota Kinabalu
If you like the idea of spending more time at the airport restaurants and less time at the security checkpoint on your way to Kota Kinabalu, follow these helpful tips:

  • Security staff will request to see your passport and boarding pass at the checkpoint. Tuck them away in a convenient place, so they’re ready for inspection.
  • Belts, wallets and wrist watches must be placed in a bin for X-raying. If you enter the body scanner with any one of these items, you’ll be turned around and requested to remove them.
  • Everyday electronics such as tablets, laptops and phones are always sent through the X-ray machine separately. Be sure to have them within easy reach.
  • When it comes to traveling with gels and liquids, every passenger is permitted a quart-sized clear resealable bag to keep containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).
  • Give some thought to your choice of footwear. Slippers are great because they’re a piece of cake to take off when you’re at the security checkpoint. Try wearing some on your next flight!
  • Some countries have stringent quarantine laws. Think about where you’re journeying to and whether or not it’s permissible to travel with fresh fruit and other foods.
