Do you have any tips for my flight to Kigali?
Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Kigali could be as easy as pie or it could drag on forever. Below are some useful tips that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • First things first, pack in your passport, travel docs, credit cards and vital medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A thrilling novel and a laptop crammed with your favourite movies are some great options. If you intend to catch up on some sleep, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, leave space for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes so you'll arrive looking fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Make sure you don't have a pocket knife lurking in one of the zippers of your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive goods, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

  • The aisles of a plane aren't the place for a fashion parade. Don comfortable layers and opt for shoes that are closed-toe, flat and easy to take on and off.
  • The result of lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers on long-haul flights. Lower your risks by drinking water, keeping your legs moving and wearing compression tights or socks.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Kigali?
The secret is to be well prepared before you reach the airport security gate. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Kigali in no time at all. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a great start:

  • Your boarding pass and passport will need to be presented to airport security. Keep them someplace accessible to avoid fumbling around for them.
  • The X-ray machine is up next. Remove anything on you that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
  • For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your laptop, phone and any other electronic gadgets will also need to be sent through the scanner.
  • Can't travel without your favourite perfume or cologne? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no greater 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 a few precious minutes. Boots and heavy shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
  • Airlines will not allow any sharp items or pocket knives in the cabin. If you need to bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked luggage.
