How to survive the flight to Bissau?
Wherever you’re jetting in from, flying can be a seamless experience if you’ve planned ahead. Follow these handy travel tips that will help get your Bissau holiday started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • First of all, pack in your passport, official ID, credit cards and daily medications. Next, you’ll want some entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy novel and a phone crammed with your favourite shows are always good 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, squeeze in a toothbrush and some facial wipes to ensure you hop off the plane looking and feeling fresh.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of banned items can differ between air carriers, the general rule to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like knives, scissors, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sports equipment like baseball bats, and items that could harm other people, such as pepper spray and guns, aren’t allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The goal here is to feel as comfortable as you can. Layer up in natural fibers and take a cardigan in case it gets cool in the cabin. Always go with flat, well-fitting shoes as it’s possible that your feet and ankles will swell a little during the flight. Leave the stilettos and hiking boots in your main luggage.
  • A serious condition known as DVT (deep vein thrombosis) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clots forming due to inactivity and poor circulation. Walking up and down the aisle and doing foot and leg exercises in your seat helps to prevent this from occurring. Wearing a good-quality pair of compression socks or tights also helps reduce the risk.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Bissau?
It’s easy — be prepared. We’ve rounded up some handy tips and tricks for a fuss-free trip through security. Watch out Bissau, here you come:

  • Security personnel first need to know that you have a valid passport and matching boarding pass before you’re allowed to proceed any further. Have them ready to show.
  • After that, both you and your hand luggage will be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Items such as your jacket, belt and earphones need to go through the machine.
  • Your electronic devices like laptops and phones will also need to go on a tray to be scanned. No need to worry though, you’ll be back online before you know it.
  • Remove all gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They often need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several valuable minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on sneakers are usually not.
  • Airlines won’t allow any sharp items or pocket knives in your carry-on luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, check them in.
