Do you have any tips for my flight to Alexandra?
Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Alexandra could be a piece of cake or it could drag on forever. We've put together some useful hints that will help you start your next great escape on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • First of all, pack in your passport, travel docs, cash and daily medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to while away the time. A juicy novel and a phone filled with your favourite movies are some great options. If you hope to catch more than just forty winks, a quality neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, squeeze in a few toiletry items to ensure you arrive at your destination looking fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of banned items can differ between airlines, the general rule of thumb is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes tools, metal cutlery, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sports equipment like golf clubs, and items that could injure passengers, such as firearms and swords, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • You'll want to go for comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes in the cabin by layering up, and opt for closed-toe, flat shoes like sneakers.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Wander around the cabin and stretch your legs or do some simple exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Alexandra?
The secret is to be organised before you reach security. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Alexandra in the blink of an eye. Follow these tips and get your holiday off to a great start:

  • Security personnel first need to make sure that you have a valid ID and matching boarding pass before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them close by, ready for inspection.
  • Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your jacket, belt, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your earphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as your turn draws near.
  • All your electronic devices, including your phone and laptop, must also be separately scanned.
  • Remove gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They often need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • It's also likely that you'll need to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a smart idea.
  • Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them safely away in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
