Do you have any tips for my flight to Cape Town?
We've got the lowdown on how to make your journey as stress-free as possible. Follow our top tips and you'll be zooming through airport security and seeing the best of Cape Town before you know it. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • First and foremost, pack in your passport, official ID, bank cards and vital medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy novel and a phone filled with your favourite shows are some fantastic options. If you hope to catch a few z's, a quality neck pillow and some earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some facial wipes to ensure you step off the plane feeling fresh as a daisy.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of banned items differs between airlines, the general rule to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like knives, scissors, spray paint and fireworks. Sporting equipment like ice skates, and items that could harm other people, such as swords and guns, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Your main priority is to feel as comfortable as you can. Pick shoes that are easy to slip on and off, dress in loose, natural fibers and don't forget to take a jacket in case you get cold in the cabin.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by extended periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Wander around the cabin and stretch your legs or do some gentle exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Cape Town?
It's easy --- be prepared. We've put together some helpful hints for a stress-free trip through security. Watch out Cape Town, here you come:

  • Airport security personnel first need to verify that you have a valid passport and travel documents before you can proceed any further. Have them ready for inspection.
  • After that, both you and your hand luggage will be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that might set the alarms off. Items such as your coat, belt and earphones need to go through the machine.
  • Your electronic gadgets like phones and laptops will also need to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry though, you'll be back online before you know it.
  • Any gels or liquids, such as hair oil or hand cream, that you want to bring on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • There's a good chance you'll be required to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a wise idea.
  • Sharp items such as knives and scissors are not allowed on board. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked baggage.
