How to survive the flight to Bamako?

If you're not prepared, airports and flying can be testing. But there's no need to panic. Follow these useful tips for a stress-free start to your getaway in Bamako.\n\nWhat to pack in your hand luggage:\n\n* Air travel can be a stress-free experience if you pack the right stuff. First things first, you'll need toiletry items, such as deodorant, toothpaste and a toothbrush, a fresh change of clothes and a few magazines. Secondly, leave space in your bag for your phone and charger, any vital medications and maybe a comfy neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget to take your passport, travel documents and some cash.\n\nDo not pack the following items in your hand luggage:\n\n* Make sure you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) lurking in the bottom of your carry-on luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive products, such as fuel and matches, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).\n\nWhat to wear on a flight:\n\n* The long, narrow aisles of your aircraft are no fashion runway. Don comfortable layers and bring a sweater as the temperature can drop inside the cabin. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are also a good idea.\n* The result of lengthy periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a serious condition that can affect passengers during long-haul flights. But the great news is there are proven ways to significantly reduce the risk of developing it. Keep your fluids up, walk up and down the aisles whenever possible and wear compression socks to help improve your circulation.\n
