Do you have any tips for my flight to Malé?
No matter where you're coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you're well prepared. We've put together a list of handy travel tips that will help get your Malé escape started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:
  • It's easy — first, pack in your passport, important documents, wallet and vital medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling book and a phone filled with your favourite shows are always good options. If you intend to catch a few z's, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones will also be useful. Finally, leave space for a toothbrush and some deodorant to ensure you hop off the plane looking and feeling fresh.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
  • While the list of banned items differs between air carriers, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, pocket knives, fuels and bleaching agents. Sports equipment like bows and arrows, and items that could harm passengers, such as swords and guns, won't be allowed on board either.
What to wear on a flight:
  • Comfort should be your priority when choosing what to wear during your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a smart option, as are roomy, closed-toe shoes.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to inactivity and poor circulation, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks.
How to get through airport security fast when flying to Malé?
The simple answer is — be prepared. We've put together some tips and tricks for a stress-free trip through security. Look out Malé, here you come:
  • Be sure to keep your ID and boarding pass easily accessible. They'll be the first things you'll be asked to show at security.
  • Next up, both you and your hand luggage must be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that might trigger the alarms. Items such as your belt, jacket and headphones need to go through the machine.
  • For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic devices will also need to be sent through the scanner.
  • Travelling with your favourite perfume? Not a problem. 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're permitted to bring it with you in your carry-on bag.
  • It's also possible you'll need to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a good idea.
  • Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them in your checked luggage. They won't be allowed on board.
