How to survive the flight to Umtata?
Depending on where you’re coming from, your flight to Umtata could be no sweat at all or it could go on forever. We’ve put together some useful travel tips that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The secret to having a pain-free flight experience is to be prepared. First up, the essentials: passport, boarding pass, cash and any vital medications. Next, bring on board items that’ll help keep you occupied, like some electronic gadgets or a magazine. It’s also a wise idea to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Last but not least, be sure to squeeze in toiletries like a toothbrush, deodorant and a fresh set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Make sure you don’t have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) lurking in one of the compartments of your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive substances, like aerosols and matches, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

  • Comfort really should be your main priority when selecting what to wear on your flight. Consider your footwear carefully too, as swollen feet are a common side effect of flying. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are always a sensible way to go.
  • It’s likely you’ve heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of inactivity. There are many ways to mitigate your risk. Wear a good-quality pair of compression tights or socks, drink lots of water and remember to keep your legs and feet moving. Do a few laps of the cabin or try out some simple stretches in your seat.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Umtata?
A little pre-planning before your flight will help make your getaway to Umtata easy and painless. Read through our handy hints for a speedy journey through security:

  • Keep your travel documents and passport at hand. They’ll be the first things you’ll be asked to show at airport security.
  • The X-ray machine is up next. Remove anything on you that is likely to set off the scanner’s alarm. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They’ll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
  • For just a few minutes, you’ll need to unplug from technology. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic devices also need to be sent through the scanner.
  • Any liquids or gels, such as lip balm or cologne, that you want to bring on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
  • The right choice of footwear can save you several precious minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on sneakers are usually not.
  • Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them safely away in your checked baggage. They won’t be allowed in the cabin.
