Do you have any tips for my flight to Sumbawanga?
We've got the lowdown on how to make your journey a pleasant experience. Follow our insider tips and you'll be zooming through airport security and exploring Sumbawanga before you know it. What to pack in your hand luggage:
  • The trick to having an awesome travel experience is to pack ahead. So, let's start with the basics: passport, boarding pass, cash and important medications. Next, bring items that'll help keep you entertained, like some electronic devices or a good book. It's also wise to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of earphones. Finally, don't forget to pop in toiletries like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a clean set of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
  • Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp or pointed objects, like your precious Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, flares and fuels, are also banned.
What to wear on a flight:
  • Your top priority is to be as comfortable as you can. Opt for slip-on footwear, dress in loose, natural fibers and don't forget to bring a sweater in case it gets chilly in the cabin.
  • Most travellers have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of inactivity. To lessen your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression tights or socks and move your legs and feet often.
How to get through airport security fast when flying to Sumbawanga?
The trick is to be organized before you reach airport security. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Sumbawanga before you know it. Follow these tips and get your vacation off to a terrific start:
  • First things first. Your passport and travel documents will need to be inspected by airport security personnel. Have them easily accessible so you don't hold up the line.
  • Your jacket, belt, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your headphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them before your turn arrives.
  • For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your phone, tablet and any other electronic devices will also need to be sent through the scanner.
  • Travelling with your favourite perfume? No problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, you're allowed to bring it with you in your carry-on baggage.
  • Slip-on shoes are a practical footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when passing through security. Boots and other bulky shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
  • Sharp or pointed objects (like knives and scissors) are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked bags.
