Do you have any tips for my flight to Chikwawa?
Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Chikwawa could be no sweat at all or it could drag on forever. We've rounded up some useful hints that will help you start your next great adventure on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:
  • Air travel can be a pleasure if you've got all the right stuff. Firstly, you'll need toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a spare pair of socks and a magazine or two. Next, make room in your hand luggage for your electronic gadgets, chargers, your medications and maybe a quality neck pillow as well. Lastly, remember to bring your passport, travel docs and some cash.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
  • Check carefully that you don't have a sharp object hiding in the bottom of your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable products, such as bleach and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).
What to wear on a flight:
  • The aisles of a plane aren't the place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfy clothing and go for shoes that are roomy, flat and easy to take on and off.
  • The result of sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers on long-haul flights. Reduce the risks by staying hydrated, keeping your legs and ankles moving and wearing compression socks to help your circulation.
How to get through airport security fast when flying to Chikwawa?
Being organised before your flight will help make your trip to Chikwawa a pleasure. Here are some top tips for a speedy journey past security:
  • Airport security personnel first need to establish that you have a valid ID and boarding pass before anything else. Have them within easy reach, ready for inspection.
  • Next up is the X-ray machine. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
  • All your electronic gadgets, including your tablet and phone, will also need to be scanned.
  • Want to bring along your favourite perfume or cologne? No problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, it's OK to bring with you in your carry-on luggage.
  • There's a possibility that you'll be required to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a smart idea.
  • Airlines won't allow any sharp items or pocket knives in the cabin. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked luggage.
