Do you have any tips for my flight to Pongola?
Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Pongola could be as easy as pie or it could drag on forever. We've pulled together some handy tips that will help you start your unforgettable escape on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:
  • A plane ride can be easy if you bring the right things. Firstly, you'll want a few basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a spare change of clothes and a good book. Secondly, find a spot in your bag for your laptop, a charger, any vital medications and maybe a cozy neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget to bring your passport, travel documents and some money.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
  • Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated by security. Sharp objects, like your Swiss Army knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosols and poisons, are also not allowed.
What to wear on a flight:
  • You'll want to go for comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes by layering up, and opt for easy-to-remove footwear like sneakers.
  • It's likely you've heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of inactivity. To reduce your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression socks and keep your legs and feet moving.
How to get through airport security fast when flying to Pongola?
As savvy travellers know, the secret is to be prepared before you get to security. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Pongola in the blink of an eye. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a flying start:
  • Security personnel first need to verify that you have a valid ID and matching travel documents before you can proceed any further. Keep them within easy reach.
  • The X-ray machine is up next. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
  • For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic gadgets must also be sent through the scanner.
  • Don't forget to remove gels and liquids from your hand luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • The right choice of footwear can save you a few precious minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Lightweight sneakers usually aren't.
  • Pocket knives and other sharp items are not allowed on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them safely away in your checked baggage.
