Do you have any tips for my flight to Port Louis?
Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Port Louis could be completely stress-free or it could go on forever. Here are some handy travel tips that will help you start your unforgettable escape on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The trick to having a stress-free flight experience is to be prepared. So, let's start with the basics: passport, official ID, credit cards and important medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you entertained, like some electronic devices or a magazine. You'll also want to pack your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Finally, don't forget to toss in toiletry items like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a clean T-shirt.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated. Sharp objects, like a Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and fuels, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Your top priority is to be as comfortable as you can. Go for flat, closed-toe shoes, dress in loose, natural fibers and don't forget to bring a jacket in case you get cold in the cabin.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-distance flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to poor circulation, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Port Louis?
The secret is to be organised before you get to the airport security gate. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Port Louis before you know it. Follow these helpful tips and get your trip off to a flying start:

  • First things first. Your boarding pass and travel ID will need to be presented to airport security personnel. Keep them handy so you don't have to dig around for them.
  • Next up is the X-ray machine. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as your coat or jacket. 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 phone, laptop and any other electronic gadgets also need to be sent through the scanner.
  • Travelling with your favourite hand cream? As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and it's stored in a zip-lock bag, you're permitted to bring it with you in your carry-on.
  • Slip-on shoes are a good footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when going through security. Big boots and other bulky shoes are often subjected to additional screening.
  • Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
