How to survive the flight to Tembisa?
Depending on where you’re coming from, your flight to Tembisa could be completely stress-free or it could go on forever. We’ve compiled some tips that will help you start your next great escape on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The trick to having a worry-free travel experience is to be prepared. Start with the essentials: passport, boarding pass, bank cards and important medications. Next, bring on board items that’ll help pass the time, like your laptop or a good read. It’s also a wise idea to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of headphones. And of course, don’t forget to toss in toiletries like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a spare set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Leave all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp or pointed objects, like your trusty Swiss Army knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosols and poisons, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Comfort really should be your main priority when selecting what to wear on your flight. Consider your footwear with care too, as swollen feet are a common side effect of flying. Roomy, closed-toed shoes are always a sensible way to go.
  • A condition known as DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a potential risk on long-haul flights. It’s the result of blood clots forming due to poor circulation. Walking around the cabin and doing regular foot and leg exercises in your seat helps to prevent this developing. Wearing a good-quality pair of compression socks can also help.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Tembisa?
As savvy travelers know, the secret is to be well prepared before you arrive at security. That way, you’ll be stepping onto that plane to Tembisa in no time at all. Follow these helpful tips and get your vacation off to a terrific start:

  • First things first. Your boarding pass and passport will need to be inspected by security personnel. Have them easily accessible so you don’t hold up the queue.
  • Next up, both you and your carry-on bag must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Items such as your jacket, belt and headphones need to go through the machine.
  • All your electronic gadgets, including your laptop and phone, are also required to be separately scanned.
  • Any gels or liquids, such as toothpaste or perfume, that you want to bring on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
  • Slip-on shoes are a sensible footwear choice as you’re less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Safety boots and other heavy-style shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
  • Airlines won’t allow any sharp items or pocket knives to come on board with you. If you must bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked baggage.
