How to survive the flight to El Minya?
We’ve rounded up all the info you need to make your flight a stress-free experience. Follow our tips and you’ll be hightailing it through the airport and exploring El Minya before you know it.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The secret to having a stress-free flight experience is to pack ahead. First up, the essentials: passport, travel documents, credit cards and medications. Next, take on board items that’ll help pass the time, like some electronic devices or a good read. It’s also wise to pack your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of headphones. And of course, don’t forget to pop in toiletry items like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a clean T-shirt.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of banned items can differ between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes box cutters, razor blades, fireworks and fuel. Sports equipment like golf clubs, and objects that could injure passengers, such as swords and guns, won’t be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The best way to ensure a comfortable flight is as simple as your choice in clothes. Prepare for temperature changes by layering up. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin gets chilly. Shoes like high heels and sandals are best left for other occasions. Even though they may be your favourites, opt for flat, closed-toed footwear like sneakers. Your feet will appreciate it.
  • Most travellers are aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of inactivity. There are plenty of ways to reduce your risk. Don a pair of compression tights or socks, stay hydrated and get your legs and feet moving. Wander around the cabin or perform some simple exercises in your seat.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to El Minya?
A little pre-planning before you get to the airport will help make your trip to El Minya quick and painless. Below are some useful tips and tricks for a speedy journey past security:

  • Airport security personnel first need to verify that you have a valid ID and travel documents before you can proceed any further. Have them ready for inspection.
  • Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, coat, keys and other items in your pocket, like coins, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
  • All your electronics, including your phone and laptop, will also need to be scanned.
  • Travelling with a new hand and nail cream? As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it’s stored in a zip-close bag, you can bring it with you in your carry-on bag.
  • Choosing your footwear wisely can save you valuable minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on sneakers are usually not.
  • Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them in your checked baggage. They won’t be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
