Do you have any tips for my flight to Durban?
Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Durban could be completely painless or it could drag on forever. We've rounded up some useful travel tips that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • A plane trip can be a great experience if you pack the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want some toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare pair of socks and a good book. Next, find room in your bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, your important medications and perhaps a neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, don't forget to take your passport, travel papers and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated. Sharp objects, like your beloved Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, chemicals agents and gasoline, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Comfort should be your number one priority when choosing what to wear on board. Loose, breathable clothing is a smart option, as are flat, enclosed shoes.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Wander around the cabin and stretch your legs or do some simple exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Durban?
The secret is to be organised before you get to security. That way, you'll be stepping onto that plane to Durban in next to no time. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a flying start:

  • Security personnel first need to determine that you have a valid ID and matching boarding pass before you're allowed to proceed any further. Keep them close by.
  • Next up, both you and your hand luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that might set the alarms off. Items like your belt, coat and headphones need to go through the machine.
  • Electronic devices like phones and laptops will also need to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry though, you'll be back online before you know it.
  • Can't travel without your favourite perfume? 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 bag.
  • Lightweight sneakers are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when going through security. Boots and heavier-style shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
  • Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
