Do you have any tips for my flight to Chumbe Island?

  • Wherever your journey is taking you, flying can be a great experience if you come prepared. First, pack your passport (or a valid ID), travel documents and medications. Next, toss in some in-flight entertainment to help make the time fly by. A juicy book and a tablet filled with the latest movies are some fantastic options. If you plan on catching some sleep, a comfy neck pillow and noise-canceling headphones are also worth bringing along.
  • There’s a list of items you shouldn’t pack in your carry-on baggage too. Explosives, sharps and flammables are strictly prohibited in the cabin — they often include knives, razor blades, flares and aerosol cans. Some sporting equipment, like baseball bats and tennis rackets, are also not allowed in your hand luggage. Your airline’s website will have a full list of what you can and can’t bring on board.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Go for comfort before fashion when flying. Dress in layers and wear natural materials as they allow air and moisture to pass through and keep you cool. Cabins can get colder on longer flights, so bring a pullover and always wear sneakers or enclosed shoes.
  • The condition called deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-haul flights. It’s the result of blood clotting due to poor circulation and inactivity. Wandering up and down the aisle and doing leg and foot exercises while seated can prevent it developing. Wearing compression socks or tights also helps to lower your risk.

How can I get a cheap last-minute flight to Chumbe Island?
Booking a cheap, spur-of-the-moment flight to Chumbe Island is as simple as having some flexibility with your travel plans. Have some leeway when it comes to your choice of carrier, flight times and travel dates. If your destination has a few airports to choose from, compare the prices of flying into each of them for the best deal on your airfare.
