How to survive the flight to Freetown?
Depending on where you’re coming from, your flight to Freetown could be no sweat at all or it could drag on forever. We’ve rounded up some handy travel tips that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • A plane ride can be a comfortable experience if you pack the right things. Firstly, you’ll want some basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a spare pair of socks and a good read. Next, make room in your hand luggage for your phone, tablet and chargers, your medications and perhaps a proper neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, be sure to take your passport, travel docs and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Pointed or sharp objects, like your trusty Swiss Army knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and fireworks, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Your goal here is to feel as comfortable as possible. Don layers of natural-fibre clothing and pack a jacket in case you get cold. Opt for a pair of flat, well-fitting shoes as your feet may swell during the flight. Leave the high heels and heavy hiking boots in your main luggage.
  • It’s likely you’ve heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. There are many ways to mitigate your risk. Wear a pair of compression tights or socks, stay hydrated and get your legs and feet moving. Do a few laps of the cabin or try out some simple stretches in your seat.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Freetown?
Being prepared before you get to the airport will make your getaway to Freetown a piece of cake. Read through our useful tips and tricks for a stress-free journey through security:

  • Airport security personnel first need to make sure that you have a valid passport and matching travel documents before you’re allowed to proceed any further. Have them ready to show.
  • The X-ray machine is up next. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to set off the scanner’s alarm. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They’ll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
  • For just a few minutes, you’ll have to unplug from the digital world. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic devices will need to be sent through the scanner.
  • Don’t forget to remove liquids and gels from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • The right choice of footwear can save you several minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on sneakers are usually not.
  • Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them in your checked suitcase. They won’t be allowed on board.
