Do you have any tips for my flight to Songea?
We've got the lowdown on how to make your flight an enjoyable experience. Follow our tips and tricks and you'll be hightailing it through airport security and having a blast in Songea in no time flat. What to pack in your hand luggage:
  • It's simple — first, pack in your passport, official ID, cash and daily medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy book and a tablet filled with your favourite movies are some fantastic options. If you plan to take a quick nap, a neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also be useful. Finally, leave space for a toothbrush and some deodorant to ensure you step off the plane feeling fresh and raring to go.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
  • While the list of banned items differs between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, blades, fuels and bleaching agents. Sporting equipment like ice skates, and objects that could harm other people, such as swords and batons, can't come on board with you either.
What to wear on a flight:
  • The aisles of an airplane are no place for a fashion parade. Wear layers and choose shoes that are roomy, flat and easy to pull on and off.
  • Most of us have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. To reduce your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression tights or socks and move your lower limbs often.
How to get through airport security fast when flying to Songea?
As seasoned travellers know, the secret is to be well organized before you get to airport security. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Songea in next to no time. Follow these helpful tips and get your vacation off to a fantastic start:
  • Your travel ID and boarding pass will need to be shown to airport security personnel. Keep them handy to avoid fumbling around for them.
  • Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your jacket, belt, keys and other small items, like coins, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them before your turn arrives.
  • All your electronics, including your phone and tablet, must also be scanned separately.
  • Any liquids or gels, such as hair oil or hand cream, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • There's a good chance you'll be asked to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a wise idea.
  • Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them safely away in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
