Do you have any tips for my flight to Bwindi?
We've rounded up all the info you need to make your journey a stress-free experience. Follow our tips and you'll be zooming through the airport and having a blast in Bwindi in no time flat. What to pack in your hand luggage:
  • Firstly, and most importantly, pack your passport, travel documents, cash and vital medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy book and a phone filled with your favourite shows are some wonderful options. If you hope to catch a few z's, a comfy neck pillow and some noise-cancelling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, leave space for a toothbrush and some deodorant so you'll arrive feeling fresh and ready to go.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
  • Double-check that you don't have a pocket knife lurking in one of the zippers of your carry-on luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive goods, like aerosols and matches, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).
What to wear on a flight:
  • Comfort should be your main priority when deciding what to wear on your flight. Loose clothing is a sensible option, as are flat, slip-on shoes.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clotting due to inactivity and poor circulation, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks.
How to get through airport security fast when flying to Bwindi?
Being prepared before your flight will help make your getaway to Bwindi a pleasure. Below you'll find some handy hints for a speedy journey through security:
  • Be sure to keep your boarding pass and ID close by. They're the first things you'll be asked to show at security.
  • Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that might trigger the alarms. Personal belongings like your jacket, belt and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
  • For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your laptop, phone and any other electronic gadgets will need to go through the scanner.
  • Remove all gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They often need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
  • The right choice of footwear can save you valuable minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on sneakers usually aren't.
  • Pocket knives and other sharp items are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked baggage.
