Do you have any tips for my flight to Matata?
No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you prepare well enough. We've put together a list of handy hints that will help get your Matata escape started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The trick to having a hassle-free travel experience is to plan ahead. First up, the essentials: passport, boarding pass, cash and any vital medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you entertained, like some electronic gadgets or a thrilling novel. You'll also want to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. Last but not least, be sure to toss in toiletries like a toothbrush, lip balm and a spare change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated. Sharp objects, like your trusty pocket knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and poisons, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

  • You'll want to go for comfort over style. Prepare for changes in cabin temperature by dressing in layers, and opt for closed-toe, flat footwear like sneakers.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by extended periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to walk around the cabin or do some simple exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Matata?
It's simple — be prepared. We've rounded up some tips and tricks for a fuss-free trip through airport security. Watch out Matata, here you come:

  • Security personnel first need to establish that you have a valid ID and matching travel documents before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them ready for inspection.
  • After that, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Personal belongings like your coat, belt and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
  • For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your tablet, phone and any other electronics will need to go through the scanner.
  • Can't travel without your favourite cologne? No problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, you're allowed to bring it with you in your carry-on.
  • Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several precious minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on sneakers are usually not.
  • Airlines won't allow any sharp items or pocket knives in the cabin. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked baggage.
