Do you have any tips for my flight to Dongala?
No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you've prepared well enough. We've compiled a list of handy hints that will help get your Dongala holiday started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:
  • The trick to having a great travel experience is to pack in advance. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, travel documents, credit cards and important medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you occupied, like some electronic gadgets or a good read. You'll also want to pack your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earphones. Finally, don't forget to chuck in toiletries like a toothbrush, lip balm and a clean set of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
  • Make sure you don't have a Swiss Army knife lurking in your hand luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable products, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).
What to wear on a flight:
  • Comfort should be your number one priority when deciding what to wear on your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a smart choice, as are flat, slightly roomy shoes.
  • Most travellers have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. To lower your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression socks or tights and keep your feet and legs moving.
How to get through airport security fast when flying to Dongala?
The trick is to be well organised before you reach security. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Dongala in next to no time. Follow these tips and get your holiday off to a terrific start:
  • Your ID and travel documents will need to be inspected by airport security personnel. Have them close by to avoid fumbling around for them.
  • The X-ray machine is up next. Remove anything on you that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
  • Your electronic devices like phones and laptops will also need to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry though, you'll be back online in no time.
  • Any liquids or gels, such as shampoo or hairspray, that you want to take on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • It's also likely that you'll be asked to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a clever idea.
  • Sharp items such as knives and scissors are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them safely away in your checked luggage.
