Do you have any tips for my flight to Empangeni?
Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you're well prepared. We've put together a list of handy tips that will help get your Empangeni escape started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • Firstly, and most importantly, pack your passport, travel documents, cash and daily medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling novel and a laptop crammed with your favourite shows are some terrific options. If you intend to take a short snooze, a comfy neck pillow and some earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes so you'll arrive looking and feeling fresh.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of banned items can differ between airlines, the general rule of thumb is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, knives, spray paint and fireworks. Sports equipment like hockey sticks, and items that could injure passengers, such as firearms and swords, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Comfort should be your main priority when choosing what to wear during your flight. Loose clothing is a sensible option, as are enclosed shoes like sneakers.
  • You're probably aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of inactivity. To minimize your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression socks or tights and do gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Empangeni?
Being organised before your flight will help make your getaway to Empangeni easy and painless. Check out our useful tips for a stress-free journey through security:

  • First things first. Your boarding pass and travel ID will need to be shown to security personnel. Have them close by to avoid fumbling around for them.
  • The X-ray machine comes next. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
  • Your electronic gadgets like laptops and phones will also have to go through the machine to be scanned. No need to worry though, you'll be back online before you know it.
  • Travelling with your favourite cologne or perfume? As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, it's fine to bring with you on board.
  • Slip-on shoes are a practical footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Hiking boots and other bulky shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
  • Avoid taking prohibited items in 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 on board.
