Do you have any tips for my flight to Kokstad?
If you're not prepared, travelling can be a real challenge. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these tips and tricks for a comfortable start to your time in Kokstad. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • First of all, pack in your passport, important documents, cash and medications. Next, you'll need some in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling novel and a laptop crammed with your favourite shows are some great options. If you hope to catch up on some sleep, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some deodorant so you'll touchdown looking and feeling fresh.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) won't be allowed on. Pointed or sharp objects, like your Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and gasoline, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

  • You'll want to go for comfort over style. Prepare for changes in temperature by donning layers, and pick slightly roomy, flat footwear like slip-ons.
  • Caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers during long-distance flights. Lower your risks by drinking water, keeping your legs and feet moving and wearing compression tights or socks.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Kokstad?
As savvy travellers know, the secret is to be organised before you get to the airport security gate. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Kokstad in no time at all. Follow these helpful tips and get your holiday off to a great start:

  • Your travel ID and boarding pass will need to be inspected by airport security personnel. Have them easily accessible to avoid fumbling around for them.
  • The X-ray machine is up next. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
  • For just a few moments, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic devices must also go through the scanner.
  • Any liquids or gels, such as perfume or hand cream, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
  • Lightweight sneakers are a sensible footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when passing through security. Hiking boots and heavier-style shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
  • Sharp items like knives are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so put them in your checked baggage.
