How to survive the flight to Ifakara?
We’ve rounded up all the info you need to make your flight as pain-free as possible. Follow our tips and you’ll be cruising through the airport and enjoying Ifakara in no time flat.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The trick to having an awesome travel experience is to pack in advance. First up, the essentials: passport, travel docs, credit cards and daily medications. Next, bring on board items that’ll help keep you occupied, like your laptop or a juicy novel. It’s also a wise idea to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones. Last but not least, don’t forget to toss in toiletry items like a toothbrush, deodorant and a clean set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of banned items differs between airlines, the general rule of thumb is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, blades, aerosol cans and flares. Sports equipment like baseball bats, and objects that could harm passengers, such as firearms and swords, won’t be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The narrow aisles of an aircraft are not the place for a fashion parade. Don comfortable layers and don’t forget to bring a cardigan as the temperature can drop in the cabin on long-haul flights. Flat, enclosed shoes are also a sensible choice.
  • Most travellers have heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of inactivity. There are many ways to minimize your risk. Wear compression tights or socks, drink plenty of water and keep your legs and feet moving. Wander up and down the aisles of the cabin or perform some simple exercises in your seat.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Ifakara?
As savvy travellers know, the secret is to be prepared before you reach the security gate. That way, you’ll be stepping onto that plane to Ifakara in no time flat. Follow these helpful tips and get your holiday off to a flying start:

  • Security personnel first need to know that you have a valid ID and travel documents before you can proceed any further. Have them in your hand, ready for inspection.
  • Next up, both you and your hand luggage must be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that might set the alarms off. Personal belongings such as your belt, coat and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
  • All electronic gadgets, including your phone and tablet, must also be scanned.
  • Can’t travel without your favourite hand cream? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it’s stored in a zip-close bag, you’re allowed to bring it with you on board.
  • It’s also possible you’ll be required to remove your shoes to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a wise idea.
  • Sharp items such as knives and scissors are not allowed in the cabin. They’ll be confiscated at security, so pack them safely away in your checked baggage.
