How to survive the flight to Rakwana?
Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you're prepared. We've made a list of top travel tips that will help get your Rakwana vacation started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The secret to having an awesome flight experience is to pack ahead. So, let's start with the basics: passport, boarding pass, cash and vital medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you occupied, like some electronic gadgets or a thrilling book. It's also smart to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones. Last but not least, be sure 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:

  • Leave all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Pointed or sharp objects, like your pocket knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, flares and gasoline, are also prohibited.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The long, narrow aisles of your airplane are not the best place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfy clothing and remember to take a cardigan as it tends to get cool in the cabin. Closed-toed, flat shoes are always a good choice too.
  • Caused by sustained periods of immobility, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers on long-distance flights. But the good news is there are ways to significantly reduce the risk of developing it. Stay hydrated, wander through the cabin as often as you can and wear compression socks or tights.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Rakwana?
As savvy travelers know, the secret is to be prepared before you reach security. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Rakwana in no time at all. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a great start:

  • Security personnel first need to know that you have a valid ID and matching boarding pass before you can proceed any further. Have them close by, ready for inspection.
  • The X-ray machine comes next. Remove anything on you that is likely to beep. This includes items like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
  • For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic devices must also be sent through the scanner.
  • Remove gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They often need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
  • Choosing your footwear wisely can save you a few precious minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
  • Sharp items are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them in your checked baggage.
