How to survive the flight to Makurdi?
Wherever you’re coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you’re prepared. We’ve made a list of essential travel tips that will help get your Makurdi escape started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • It’s easy — first, pack in your passport, official ID, cash and daily medications. Next, you’ll need some entertainment to while away the hours. A thrilling novel and a tablet filled with your favourite shows are some terrific options. If you intend to take a quick snooze, a neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, find room for a few toiletry items to ensure you arrive at your destination looking and feeling fresh.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp or pointed objects, like your Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosols and gasoline, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The key to a comfortable flight is often as simple as your choice of clothing. Prepare for changes in temperature by bringing layers. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin gets too cold. Shoes like flip flops and heels are best left for other occasions. Instead, go for flat, closed-toed footwear like slip-ons. Your feet will appreciate it.
  • You’ve probably heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by reduced mobility or inactivity. There are plenty of ways to lessen your risk. Don a pair of compression socks, drink plenty of water and keep your legs and feet moving. Walk the aisles of the cabin or try out some exercises in your seat.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Makurdi?
As savvy travellers know, the secret is to be well prepared before you get to the airport security gate. That way, you’ll be boarding that plane to Makurdi in the blink of an eye. Follow these helpful tips and get your holiday off to a terrific start:

  • Airport security personnel first need to see that you have a valid ID and matching travel documents before you’re allowed to proceed any further. Keep them close by.
  • 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 trigger the alarms. Personal belongings such as your belt, jacket and earphones need to go through the machine.
  • All your electronic devices, including your tablet and phone, must also be scanned separately.
  • Can’t travel without your favourite hand and nail cream? As long as it’s in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it’s stored in a zip-lock bag, you’re allowed to bring it with you on board.
  • Slip-on shoes are a sensible footwear choice as you’re less likely to be asked to remove them when passing through security. Safety boots and other bulky shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
  • Pocket knives and other sharp items are not allowed on board. They’ll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked baggage.
