Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Solwezi could be a piece of cake or it could go on forever. We've rounded up some useful travel tips that will help you start your unforgettable escape on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:
  • A plane ride can be a cruisy experience if you take the right things. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletries, such as deodorant, toothpaste and a toothbrush, a spare set of clothes and a few magazines. Secondly, make room in your bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, medications and perhaps a proper neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to take your passport, travel papers and some cash.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
  • Leave all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) won't be allowed on. Sharp objects, like a Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, bleaching agents and poisons, are also restricted.
What to wear on a flight:
  • The aisles of an aircraft aren't the place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfy clothing and opt for shoes that are closed-toe, flat and easy to remove.
  • The result of sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers during long-distance flights. Reduce the risks by drinking water, keeping your ankles and legs moving and wearing compression tights or socks.
How to get through airport security fast when flying to Solwezi?
The answer is simple — be organized. We've compiled some tips and tricks for a stress-free trip through airport security. Look out Solwezi, here you come:
  • Security personnel first need to know that you have a valid ID and boarding pass before you're allowed to proceed any further. Keep them within easy reach.
  • 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. Items such as your belt, coat and headphones need to go through the machine.
  • For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your phone, tablet and any other electronic gadgets must also go through the scanner.
  • Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or hand cream, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one litre), zip-lock bag.
  • The right choice of footwear can save you a few precious minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Lightweight sneakers usually aren't.
  • Sharp items like knives are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked suitcase.
