Do you have any tips for my flight to Gitega?
We've got the lowdown on how to make your journey an enjoyable experience. Follow our tips and you'll be speeding through the airport and discovering Gitega in no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The trick to having a hassle-free travel experience is to pack in advance. Start with the essentials: passport, travel docs, cash and any vital medications. Next, take on board items that'll help pass the time, like some electronic devices or a juicy novel. It's also a wise idea to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. Last but not least, be sure to toss in toiletry items like a toothbrush, deodorant and a spare set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of prohibited items differs between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes tools, metal cutlery, fuels and bleaching agents. Sports equipment like ski poles, and objects that could harm other people, such as swords and guns, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Comfort should be your number one priority when deciding what to wear on board. Loose clothing is a smart option, as are flat, slightly roomy shoes.
  • Caused by sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers on long-distance flights. Lower your risks by drinking water, keeping your lower limbs moving and wearing compression socks or tights.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Gitega?
It's simple — be prepared. We've compiled some helpful hints for a fuss-free trip through airport security. Watch out Gitega, here you come:

  • Have your travel documents and passport close by. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to show at airport security.
  • Next up, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that might set the alarms off. Items such as your coat, belt and earphones need to go through the machine.
  • Your electronic devices like phones and laptops will also have to go through the machine to be scanned. Don't worry though, you'll be back online before you know it.
  • Any liquids or gels, such as toothpaste or perfume, that you want to bring on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • Slip-on shoes are a clever footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when passing through security. Hiking boots and heavier-style shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
  • Airlines won't allow any sharp items or pocket knives in your carry-on luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked baggage.
