  • The secret to having a worry-free travel experience is to pack ahead. Start with the essentials: passport, boarding pass, credit cards and any vital medications. Next, take on board items that’ll help while away those hours, like your laptop or a few magazines. It’s also smart to pack your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. Last but not least, be sure to chuck in toiletries like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a spare change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won’t be allowed on. Sharp or pointed objects, like your pocket knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosols and fireworks, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The key to a comfortable flight is as simple as the clothes you wear. Prepare for temperature changes by layering up. That way you’ll stay nice and warm if the cabin gets chilly. Shoes like flip flops and heels are best left for other occasions. Instead, opt for flat, closed-toed footwear like sneakers. Your feet will appreciate it.
  • The result of lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers during long flights. The great news is there are ways to significantly reduce the risk of developing it. Drink plenty of water, wander around the cabin as often as you can and wear compression tights or socks.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Nkhata Bay?

  • First things first. Your passport and travel documents will need to be inspected by security personnel. Have them easily accessible so you don’t hold up the queue.
  • After that, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that might set the alarms off. Personal belongings like your jacket, belt and headphones need to go through the machine.
  • For just a few minutes, you’ll have to unplug from technology. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic devices will also need to go through the scanner.
  • Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or hand cream, that you want to take on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), zip-lock bag.
  • Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several valuable minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
  • Sharp items such as knives and scissors can’t be taken on board. They’ll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked bags.
