Do you have any tips for my flight to Middelburg?
If you're poorly prepared, air travel can be a real challenge. But there's no need to worry. Follow these tips and tricks for a hassle-free start to your holiday in Middelburg. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The secret to having a stress-free flight experience is to plan ahead. So, let's start with the basics: passport, official ID, credit cards and any vital medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you entertained, like some electronic devices or a thrilling book. It's also smart to pack your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. Last but not least, be sure to squeeze in toiletry items like a toothbrush, deodorant and a fresh change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of prohibited items can differ between air carriers, the general guide to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, blades, fuels and bleaching agents. Sports equipment like golf clubs, and objects that could harm other people, such as firearms and ammunition, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Your main aim is to feel as comfortable as possible. Pick a pair of slip-on shoes, dress in loose, natural-fibre clothing and remember to bring a pullover in case you get cold in the cabin.
  • Caused by sustained periods of immobility, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers on long-distance flights. Lower your risks by staying hydrated, keeping your legs moving and wearing compression tights or socks.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Middelburg?
Being organised before your flight can make your getaway to Middelburg quick and painless. Check out our useful tips and tricks for a stress-free journey through security:

  • First things first. Your ID and travel documents will need to be inspected by airport security. Keep them at hand to avoid fumbling around for them.
  • Next up is the X-ray machine. Remove anything on you that is likely to set off the 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.
  • Your electronic gadgets like laptops and phones will also have to go through the machine to be scanned. Don't worry though, you'll be back online before you know it.
  • Remember to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They often need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • Lightweight sneakers are a practical footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Boots and other bulky shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
  • Sharp or pointed objects (like knives and scissors) are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so put them in your checked bags.
