How to survive the flight to Mombasa?
Depending on where you’re coming from, your journey to Mombasa could be a piece of cake or it could drag on forever. Here are some handy travel tips that will help you start your next great escape on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The trick to having a great flight experience is to pack in advance. Start with the essentials: passport, official ID, credit cards and any vital medications. Next, bring items that’ll help pass the time, like some electronic gadgets or a thrilling novel. It’s also wise to pack your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of headphones. And of course, be sure to pop in toiletry items like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a spare change of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won’t be allowed on. Sharp or pointed objects, like your trusty pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and matches, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Comfort should be your main priority when deciding what to wear on board. Consider your choice of footwear with care too, as swollen ankles and feet can be a side effect of flying. Flat shoes which are slightly roomy work well.
  • Unfortunately, one risk of flying long-haul is developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity. To avoid this, take every opportunity to stretch your legs and walk around the cabin. Compression tights and socks are another great idea to help minimize this risk.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Mombasa?
The secret is to be well prepared before you get to the security gate. That way, you’ll be boarding that plane to Mombasa in a flash. Follow these tips and get your holiday off to a spectacular start:

  • Your boarding pass and travel ID will need to be shown to airport security. Keep them at hand to avoid fumbling around for them.
  • After that, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Personal belongings like your belt, jacket and earphones need to go through the machine.
  • All your electronic gadgets, including your phone and tablet, will also need to be scanned separately.
  • Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or hairspray, that you want to take on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
  • There’s a good chance you’ll need to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a good idea.
  • Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them in your checked baggage. They won’t be allowed on board.
