No matter where you're coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you've planned ahead. We've put together a list of handy travel tips that will get your Dongala holiday started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • First of all, put in your passport, travel docs, cash and daily medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to while away the hours. A thrilling novel and a tablet filled with your favourite movies are good options. If you intend to take a short nap, a neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some facial wipes so you'll hop off the plane feeling fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of prohibited items differs between air carriers, the general rule to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, pocket knives, aerosol cans and flares. Sports equipment like ice skates, and items that could harm passengers, such as firearms and ammunition, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Comfort really should be your highest priority when choosing what to wear during your flight. Consider your footwear choice carefully too, as swollen ankles and feet can be a side effect of flying. Roomy, closed-toed shoes are always a smart option.
  • The result of lengthy periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a serious condition that can affect some passengers during long-haul flights. The great news is there are numerous ways to reduce the risk of developing it. Drink plenty of water, walk up and down the aisles as much as possible and wear compression socks to help improve your circulation.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Dongala?
A little pre-planning before you get to the airport can make your getaway to Dongala a pleasure. Check out our handy tips for a speedy journey past security:

  • Security personnel first need to know that you have a valid passport and matching boarding pass before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them ready for inspection.
  • Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your belt, jacket, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your headphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them before your turn.
  • For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from the digital world. Your laptop, phone and any other electronics also need to be sent through the scanner.
  • Remove all gels and liquids from your carry-on luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • Choosing your footwear wisely can save you valuable minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
  • Sharp or pointed items are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked suitcase.
