Do you have any tips for my flight to Sokoto?
Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Sokoto could be completely painless or it could drag on forever. We've put together some tips that will help you start your next great escape on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The secret to having a great travel experience is to pack in advance. So, let's start with the basics: passport, travel documents, cash and daily medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help while away those hours, like some electronic devices or a few magazines. You'll also want to pack your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones. And of course, be sure to squeeze in toiletry items like a toothbrush, lip balm and a clean set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Check carefully that you don't have sharp or pointed objects lurking in your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable products, such as fuel and fireworks, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

  • The aisles of an airplane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfy clothing and opt for shoes that are flat, enclosed and easy to pull on and off.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Make a point of walking around the cabin or do some gentle exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Sokoto?
Being organised before your flight can make your getaway to Sokoto a pleasure. We've compiled some handy hints for a swift journey past security:

  • Your travel documents and ID will need to be inspected by security personnel. Have them close by so you don't hold up the line.
  • Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your jacket, belt, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your headphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them before your turn.
  • For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic gadgets also need to be sent through the scanner.
  • Want to bring along your favourite cologne? Not a problem. As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a zip-close bag, you're allowed to bring it with you on board.
  • Slip-on shoes are a clever footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when passing through security. Hiking boots and other heavy shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
  • Sharp or pointed items are not allowed on board. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked luggage.
