Cheap Flights to Central Kalahari Game Reserve

Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Central Kalahari Game Reserve could be as easy as pie or it could go on forever. Below are some useful hints that will help you start your next great escape on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane trip can be a comfortable experience if you carry the right gear. Firstly, you'll want a few basic toiletry items, such as lip balm and hand cream, a spare set of clothes and a good book. Secondly, find room in your carry-on bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, any vital medications and perhaps a blow-up neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, remember to bring your passport, travel documents and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Double-check that you don't have a pocket knife lurking in your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable substances, such as fuel and fireworks, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your number one priority when deciding what to wear on board. Loose, breathable clothing is a smart option, as are enclosed shoes like sneakers.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Walk around the cabin and give your legs a stretch or do some simple exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

Being prepared before you get to the airport will help make your trip to Central Kalahari Game Reserve a breeze. Read through our top tips for a stress-free journey past security:

• Airport security personnel first need to know that you have a valid passport and travel documents before anything else. Have them in your hand, ready for inspection.
• After that, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that might set the alarms off. Personal belongings like your jacket, belt and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
• Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
• Travelling with a new perfume or cologne? Not a problem. As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a zip-lock bag, you're permitted to bring it with you in your carry-on.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes usually aren't.
• Airlines will not allow any sharp or pointed objects to come on board with you. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked baggage.
