Do you have any tips for my flight to Asmara?
We've got the lowdown on how to make your journey a pleasant experience. Follow our tips and tricks and you'll be breezing through airport security and discovering Asmara in no time flat. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • Travelling on a plane can be a pleasure if you take the right things. Firstly, you'll want some toiletry items, such as lip balm and hand cream, a fresh change of clothes and a good read. Secondly, leave space in your bag for your phone and charger, medications and maybe a neck pillow too. Lastly, remember to take your passport, travel docs and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Double-check that you don't have a pocket knife lurking in your hand luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable goods, like aerosols and matches, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

  • Comfort should be your highest priority when deciding what to wear during your flight. Loose clothing is a smart option, as are roomy, closed-toe shoes.
  • Most travellers have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To lessen your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression tights or socks and keep your legs and feet moving.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Asmara?
A little pre-planning before you arrive at the airport will make your getaway to Asmara a pleasure. We've rounded up some top tips for a swift journey past security:

  • Keep your boarding pass and ID at hand. They're the first items you'll be asked for by airport security.
  • The X-ray machine is up next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to beep. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
  • Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also need to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry, you'll be back online soon enough.
  • Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or hairspray, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • Slip-on shoes are a great footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Boots and other bulky shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
  • Sharp items such as knives and scissors are not allowed on board. They'll be seized at security, so put them in your checked luggage.
