How to survive the flight to Cairo?
Wherever you’re coming from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you’ve planned ahead. Check out these handy travel tips that will get your Cairo holiday started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • First of all, put in your passport, travel docs, credit cards and daily medications. Next, you’ll need some in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy book and a laptop crammed with your favourite shows are good options. If you hope to take a quick snooze, a comfy neck pillow and some noise-cancelling headphones will also be useful. Finally, leave space for a few toiletry items so you’ll hop off the plane feeling fresh as a daisy.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of restricted items can differ between airlines, the general rule to follow is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like knives, scissors, fuels and bleaching agents. Sports equipment like hockey sticks, and objects that could harm passengers, such as guns and swords, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The key to a comfortable flight is as simple as the clothes you wear. Prepare for changes in temperature by bringing layers. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin gets too cold. Shoes like sandals and heels are best left for other occasions. Even though they may be your favourites, go for flat, closed-toed footwear like sneakers. Your feet will thank you for it.
  • Most travellers have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of inactivity. There are many ways to mitigate your risk. Wear compression socks, drink plenty of water and remember to keep your legs and feet moving. Do a lap or two of the cabin or try out some exercises in your seat.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Cairo?
The answer is simple — be prepared. We’ve pulled together some tips and tricks for a fuss-free trip through security. Look out Cairo, here you come:

  • Be sure to have your boarding pass and passport within easy reach. They’ll be the first things you’ll be asked for by security.
  • After that, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Items such as your belt, coat and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
  • For just a few moments, you’ll have to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic gadgets will also need to be sent through the scanner.
  • Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or hand cream, that you want to take on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
  • There’s a chance you’ll be asked to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a clever idea.
  • Airlines will not allow any sharp items or pocket knives to come on board with you. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked luggage.
