Cheap Flights to Bamenda

Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you're prepared. We've made a list of top travel tips that will get your Bamenda vacation started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Firstly, and most importantly, pack in your passport, important documents, bank cards and medications. Next, you'll need some in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling book and a tablet crammed with your favourite movies are some terrific options. If you hope to catch a few z's, a quality neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, leave space for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes so you'll touchdown feeling fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• While the list of prohibited items can differ between airlines, the general rule of thumb is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes knives, scissors, spray paint and fireworks. Sports equipment like bows and arrows, and items that could injure passengers, such as firearms and swords, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

• Go for comfort over style. Prepare for changes in cabin temperature by donning layers, and wear slightly roomy, flat footwear like slip-ons.
• You're probably aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of sitting. To reduce your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression socks and move your lower limbs often.

Being organized before you get to the airport will help make your getaway to Bamenda quick and painless. Read through our top tips for a speedy journey past security:

• First things first. Your travel documents and passport will need to be inspected by airport security personnel. Have them close by to avoid fumbling around for them.
• The X-ray machine comes next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
• Your electronic gadgets like phones and laptops will also have to go through the machine for inspection. Don't worry, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Remember to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you valuable minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
• Sharp or pointed items are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked bags.
