Do you have any tips for my flight to Mombasa?

  • Get your vacation off to a flying start by being prepared. Pack your travel documents, passport and medications first. Next, consider downloading a few blockbuster movies on your tablet or phone for a guiltless binge session. Or, throw in that bestseller you’ve been saving for a rainy day. Lastly, a snack or two to nibble on and a neck pillow will go a long way to making the journey as comfy as possible.
  • There’s a list of items you should not pack in your carry-on too. Flammables, explosives and sharps are strictly prohibited in the cabin — they often include box cutters, razor blades, aerosol cans and flares. Some sporting equipment, like baseball bats and tennis rackets, are also not allowed in your hand luggage. Your airline’s website will have all the details about what you can and can’t take on board.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Whether traveling long or short-haul, layering up is key to staying comfortable. Choose loose, breathable fabrics that will keep you fresh and pack a sweater to cope with any in-flight temperature variations. Keep your feet happy in a pair of sneakers or flat shoes.
  • The condition called deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-haul flights. It’s the result of blood clotting caused by inactivity and poor circulation. Walking up and down the aisle and doing foot and leg stretches while seated can prevent it developing. Wearing compression tights or socks can also help to lessen your risk.

How can I get a cheap last-minute flight to Mombasa?
The key to booking a cheap last-minute flight to Mombasa is to remain flexible. You can increase your chances of landing a terrific deal if you’re not tied to particular airlines, flight times and travel dates. Also compare the prices of flying into and out of nearby airports if that’s an option for you.
Where can I learn more about changing or canceling my flight to Mombasa?
Most flights are free to cancel within 24 hours of making the reservation. However, some flights are non-refundable, and you may receive a flight credit from the airline to use for a future booking. For more information, please visit our Customer Service Portal.
