Do you have any tips for my flight to Mombasa?
Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you've prepared well. We've put together a list of top travel tips that will help get your Mombasa holiday started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:
  • Travelling on a plane can be a comfortable experience if you take the right things. First things first, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare change of clothes and something to read. Secondly, leave space in your hand luggage for your electronic gadgets, chargers, medications and perhaps a blow-up neck pillow as well. Lastly, don't forget to bring your passport, travel docs and some money.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
  • While the list of prohibited items differs between airlines, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes knives, scissors, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sporting equipment like golf clubs, and objects that could injure passengers, such as swords and batons, can't come on board with you either.
What to wear on a flight:
  • The aisles of an aircraft are no place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfy clothing and pick shoes that are roomy, flat and easy to slip on and off.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clots forming due to poor circulation, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression tights or socks.
How to get through airport security fast when flying to Mombasa?
As seasoned travellers know, the secret is to be prepared before you arrive at the security gate. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Mombasa in no time at all. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a flying start:
  • Your travel documents and passport will need to be presented to security personnel. Keep them within easy reach to avoid fumbling around for them.
  • After that, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Personal belongings like your jacket, belt and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
  • Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also need to go on a tray for inspection. No need to worry though, you'll be back online in no time.
  • Travelling with your favourite hand cream? As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, you can bring it with you in your carry-on bag.
  • There's a possibility that you'll be required to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a wise idea.
  • Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
