How to survive the flight to Bolama?
Depending on where you’re coming from, your journey to Bolama could be completely stress-free or it could drag on forever. We’ve compiled some tips that will help you start your next great escape on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • A plane ride can be a comfortable experience if you pack the right things. Firstly, you’ll want some basic toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a fresh change of clothes and a few magazines. Secondly, leave space in your carry-on bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, any medications and maybe a cosy neck pillow as well. Lastly, remember to bring your passport, travel papers and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Double-check that you don’t have a sharp object lurking in the bottom of your hand luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive products, such as bleach and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

  • Comfort should be the goal when deciding what to wear during your flight. Consider your footwear choice carefully too, as swollen ankles and feet can be a side effect of flying. Shoes which are flat and slightly roomy are always a sensible way to go.
  • The condition called deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It’s the result of blood clotting due to poor circulation. Walking up and down the aisle and doing leg and foot exercises in your seat is a great way to prevent this from occurring. Wearing a good pair of compression socks or tights also helps reduce your risk.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Bolama?
As savvy travellers know, the secret is to be organised before you get to airport security. That way, you’ll be stepping onto that plane to Bolama in next to no time. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a terrific start:

  • Your ID and travel documents will need to be inspected by airport security personnel. Keep them at hand to avoid fumbling around for them.
  • Next up is the X-ray machine. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to beep. This includes items like earphones or headphones, 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 tablet, phone and any other electronic devices will need to go through the scanner.
  • Travelling with your favourite hand and nail cream? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it’s stored in a clear zip-lock bag, you’re permitted to bring it with you in your carry-on luggage.
  • There’s a good chance you’ll be asked to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a clever idea.
  • Airlines won’t allow any sharp or pointed objects in the cabin. If you need to bring these kinds of items, check them in.
