Do you have any tips for my flight to Jimma?
No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you're well organised. Take a peek at these top travel tips that will help get your Jimma holiday started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The secret to having a great travel experience is to pack ahead. First up, the essentials: passport, travel documents, cash and daily medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you busy, like some electronic gadgets or a magazine. You'll also want to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Last but not least, be sure to chuck in toiletries like a toothbrush, deodorant and a clean T-shirt.

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 suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated. Pointed or sharp objects, like your Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosols and matches, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Comfort should be your priority when choosing what to wear on board. Loose, breathable clothing is a sensible choice, as are enclosed shoes like sneakers.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to walk around the cabin or do some gentle exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Jimma?
It's all about being prepared. We've put together some helpful hints for a stress-free trip through security. Watch out Jimma, here you come:

  • Security personnel first need to verify that you have a valid ID and travel documents before you can proceed any further. Keep them within easy reach.
  • The X-ray machine comes next. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
  • All electronic devices, including your laptop and phone, must also be scanned.
  • Don't forget to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They often need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
  • The right choice of footwear can save you several valuable minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on sneakers usually aren't.
  • Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, put them in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
