Do you have any tips for my flight to Essau?
We've pulled together all the info you need to make your flight a stress-free experience. Follow our top tips and you'll be cruising through the airport and seeing the best of Essau in no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The secret to having a stress-free travel experience is to pack in advance. So, let's start with the basics: passport, boarding pass, cash and important medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you occupied, like some electronic devices or a good book. It's also a wise idea to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. Finally, don't forget to pop in toiletry items like a toothbrush, deodorant and a clean T-shirt.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of restricted items differs between airlines, the general rule of thumb is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes knives, scissors, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sporting equipment like ski poles, and objects that could harm other people, such as guns and swords, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Choose comfort over style. Prepare for changes in cabin temperature by donning layers, and opt for slightly roomy, flat shoes like slip-ons.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to walk around the cabin and stretch your legs or do some simple exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Essau?
As seasoned travellers know, the secret is to be organised before you get to the airport security gate. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Essau in no time at all. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a spectacular start:

  • Be sure to have your passport and boarding pass within close reach. They're the first things you'll be asked to show at security.
  • Your belt, coat, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your headphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them before your turn arrives.
  • Your electronic gadgets like phones and laptops will also have to go through the machine to be scanned. Don't worry though, you'll be back online before you know it.
  • Want to bring along your favourite hand cream? As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, you're permitted to bring it with you on board.
  • The right choice of footwear can save you valuable minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Lightweight sneakers usually aren't.
  • Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them safely away in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
