Do you have any tips for my flight to Zanzibar Town?

  • What you pack in your cabin baggage can mean the difference between a comfortable flight, and a restless one. Start with the crucial things, like a valid ID (like your passport) and your travel documents. Once they’re packed, toss in any medications you might need. Next? It’s all about comfort. A quality neck pillow, earphones and a novel will help the hours fly by while you’re in your seat.
  • You’ll also want to check with your airline regarding what you can’t bring on board your flight. Knives, box cutters, razor blades, batons and swords are among the prohibited items. Anything flammable, sharp or explosive is generally not allowed in your carry-on baggage. Remember to pack any sports equipment like baseball bats or tennis rackets only in your checked luggage.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Go for comfort before fashion when flying. Layer up and wear natural materials as they allow air and moisture to pass through and keep you cool. Cabins can get colder on longer journeys, so pack a sweater and always wear sneakers or enclosed shoes.
  • Consider wearing compression socks or tights to reduce the risk of deep vein thrombosis (DVT). This condition is a result of blood clotting that can be caused by long periods of sitting, especially on long-distance flights. Performing foot and leg exercises in your seat or wandering around the cabin will help improve your circulation.

How can I get a cheap last-minute flight to Zanzibar Town?
To pick up a cheap, spur-of-the-moment flight to Zanzibar Town, aim to be flexible. If you can, have a bit of wiggle room with the dates you plan to travel. It also helps to have a degree of flexibility with your departure and arrival points, choice of carrier, flight times and potential stops or layovers.
