Do you have any tips for my flight to Ruaha National Park?
Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Ruaha National Park could be simple and straightforward or it could drag on forever. Here are some handy hints that will help you start your next big adventure on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • First, pack in your passport, official ID, wallet and vital medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling novel and a laptop filled with your favourite movies are some fantastic options. If you hope to catch up on some sleep, a comfy neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, leave some space for a toothbrush and some deodorant so you'll hop off the plane looking and feeling fresh.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated. Sharp or pointed objects, like your trusty Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, flares and poisons, are also restricted.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Comfort should be your main concern when choosing what to wear on board. Loose, breathable clothing is a smart choice, as are flat, enclosed shoes.
  • You're probably aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. To lower your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression socks and do gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Ruaha National Park?
As savvy travellers know, the secret is to be well organised before you arrive at the airport security gate. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Ruaha National Park in next to no time. Follow these helpful tips and get your holiday off to a fantastic start:

  • Your boarding pass and travel ID will need to be presented to airport security. Have them close by so you don't hold up the queue.
  • Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, coat, keys and other items in your pocket, like coins, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
  • All your electronic devices, including your laptop and phone, will also need to be scanned separately.
  • Remove all liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
  • It's also possible you'll be asked to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a smart idea.
  • Sharp items such as knives and scissors are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so put them in your checked luggage.
