How to survive the flight to Simbai?
Wherever you’re coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you’re well prepared. We’ve made a list of handy tips and tricks that will help get your Simbai vacation started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The trick to having an amazing flight experience is to be prepared. So, let’s start with the essentials: passport, travel documents, cash and important medications. Next, bring items that’ll help pass the time, like your laptop or a good book. It’s also wise to pack your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Finally, be sure to pop in toiletry items like a toothbrush, deodorant and a clean T-shirt.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp objects, like your precious pocket knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, flares and strong acids, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The narrow aisles of an aircraft are no place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfy clothing and remember to take a cardigan as the temperature can drop in the cabin during long-haul flights. Enclosed, flat shoes are also a sensible choice.
  • Unfortunately, one risk of long-distance travel is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by extended periods of inactivity. To prevent this, take every opportunity to stretch your legs and walk around the cabin. Compression tights and socks are another easy way to help minimize this risk.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Simbai?
Being organized before you get to the airport can make your trip to Simbai easy and painless. Here are some handy tips for a swift journey through security:

  • Airport security personnel first need to see that you have a valid passport and matching travel documents before anything else. Have them ready for inspection.
  • Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Items such as your coat, belt and earphones need to go through the machine.
  • Your electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go through the machine for inspection. Don’t worry though, you’ll be back online before you know it.
  • Remove all gels and liquids from your hand luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
  • Lightweight sneakers are a great footwear choice as you’re less likely to be asked to remove them when passing through security. Boots and heavier-style shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
  • Airlines won’t allow any sharp objects in your hand luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked baggage.
