Do you have any tips for my flight to Pemba Island?
Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Pemba Island could be a breeze or it could drag on forever. We've put together some tips that will help you start your next big adventure on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- It's simple — first, pack your passport, important documents, bank cards and medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling book and a laptop crammed with your favourite shows are some wonderful options. If you plan to catch forty winks, a quality neck pillow and some noise-cancelling headphones will also be useful. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some facial wipes to ensure you hop off the plane looking fresh and ready to go.
- Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp or pointed objects, like your precious Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as spray paint, flares and poisons, are also prohibited.
- The aisles of an airplane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfortable clothing and pick shoes that are closed-toe, flat and easy to pull on and off.
- Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a potential risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to poor circulation and inactivity, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks or tights.
How to get through airport security fast when flying to Pemba Island?
Being prepared before your flight will make your trip to Pemba Island quick and painless. Read through our top tips for a stress-free journey past security:
- First things first. Your passport and travel documents will need to be shown to airport security personnel. Keep them at hand so you don't hold up the queue.
- Next up, both you and your hand luggage will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Personal belongings such as your jacket, belt and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
- All electronic gadgets, including your laptop and phone, will also need to be scanned separately.
- Don't forget to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They often need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
- There's a possibility that you'll be required to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a clever idea.
- Airlines won't allow any sharp items or pocket knives to come on board with you. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked luggage.
