How to survive the flight to Nelspruit?
We’ve rounded up all the info you need to make your journey an enjoyable experience. Follow our insider tips and you’ll be speeding through airport security and having a ball in Nelspruit before you know it.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • A plane ride can be a cruisy experience if you’ve got all the right gear. First of all you’ll need basic toiletries, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a clean pair of socks and a good read. Next, find a spot in your carry-on bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, any vital medications and perhaps a comfy neck pillow too. Lastly, don’t forget to bring your passport, travel documents and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of prohibited items differs between air carriers, the general rule to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, drills, fuels and bleaching agents. Sporting equipment like golf clubs, and items that could injure passengers, such as pepper spray and guns, can’t come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The goal here is to feel as comfortable as possible. Layer up in natural fibers and remember to bring a jacket in case it gets chilly in the cabin. Opt for a pair of well-fitting, flat shoes as it’s possible that your feet and ankles will swell during the flight. Leave the stilettos and hiking boots in your checked baggage.
  • The serious condition known as DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a risk on long-haul flights. It’s the result of blood clots forming due to poor circulation and inactivity. Walking up and down the aisle and doing leg and foot exercises in your seat is a great way to prevent this from happening. Wearing a good-quality pair of compression socks or tights may also help.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Nelspruit?
Being organised before you arrive at the airport will help make your getaway to Nelspruit a breeze. Read through our top tips for a stress-free journey past security:

  • Your boarding pass and passport will need to be inspected by security personnel. Keep them at hand so you don’t hold up the line.
  • After that, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that might set the alarms off. Personal belongings like your belt, coat and headphones need to go through the machine.
  • Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also need to go on a tray for inspection. Don’t worry though, you’ll be back online in no time.
  • Don’t forget to remove liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
  • Lightweight sneakers are a good footwear choice as you’re less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Safety boots and other heavy shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
  • Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them in your checked baggage. They won’t be allowed in the cabin.
