How to survive the flight to Malabe?
We’ve rounded up all the info you need to make your flight a pleasant experience. Follow our tips and you’ll be zooming through the airport and having a ball in Malabe in no time.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • First and foremost, put in your passport, official ID, bank cards and medications. Next, you’ll want some in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A thrilling novel and a tablet crammed with your favourite shows are some terrific options. If you intend to catch up on some sleep, a comfy neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, squeeze in a toothbrush and some deodorant to ensure you touchdown looking fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of prohibited items differs between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, blades, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sporting equipment like hockey sticks, and objects that could harm passengers, such as swords and guns, won’t be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The narrow aisles of an aircraft are no place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfortable clothing and remember to take a sweater as it tends to get cool in the cabin. Closed-toed, flat shoes are also a good choice.
  • A condition called deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a potential risk on long-haul flights. It’s the result of blood clotting due to poor circulation. Doing regular foot and leg exercises in your seat is a great way to prevent this from happening. Wearing a high-quality pair of compression tights or socks may also help.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Malabe?
Being organised before you arrive at the airport will make your trip to Malabe easy and painless. Below you’ll find some top tips for a stress-free journey past security:

  • First things first. Your travel ID and boarding pass will need to be shown to security personnel. Keep them at hand so you don’t have to dig around for them.
  • Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your belt, jacket, keys and other small items, like your earphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
  • Your electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go on a tray for inspection. No need to worry though, you’ll be back online soon enough.
  • Remove gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • Slip-on shoes are a good footwear choice as you’re less likely to be asked to remove them when passing through security. Safety boots and other heavy-style shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
  • Sharp items such as knives and scissors are not allowed on board. They’ll be confiscated at security, so pack them safely away in your checked suitcase.
