Do you have any tips for my flight to Sowa?
We've rounded up all the info you need to make your journey as enjoyable as possible. Follow our tips and tricks and you'll be zooming through airport security and exploring Sowa in no time at all. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • First and foremost, put in your passport, travel docs, credit cards and daily medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to while away the time. A juicy book and a laptop filled with your favourite movies are always good options. If you hope to take a short snooze, a quality neck pillow and some noise-cancelling headphones will also be useful. Finally, leave space for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes so you'll arrive at your destination feeling fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of restricted items can differ between airlines, the general rule of thumb is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes knives, scissors, aerosol cans and flares. Sporting equipment like golf clubs, and objects that could harm other people, such as swords and batons, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The aisles of a plane are no place for a fashion parade. Wear layers and choose shoes that are closed-toe, flat and easy to take on and off.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by extended periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to walk around the cabin and stretch your legs or do some gentle exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Sowa?
The secret is to be well prepared before you reach security. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Sowa in no time at all. Follow these helpful tips and get your holiday off to a spectacular start:

  • First things first. Your boarding pass and passport will need to be shown to security personnel. Keep them at hand so you don't have to dig around for them.
  • The X-ray machine comes next. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to beep. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
  • All electronic gadgets, including your phone and tablet, must also be scanned separately.
  • Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or toothpaste, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • There's a possibility that you'll need to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a wise idea.
  • Knives and other sharp items are not allowed on board. They'll be seized at security, so put them in your checked luggage.
