How to survive the flight to Arua?
No matter where you’re coming from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you’ve prepared well enough. Take a peek at these handy tips that will get your Arua escape started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • Air travel can be easy if you take the right stuff. First things first, you’ll need toiletry items, such as lip balm and hand cream, a clean set of clothes and a magazine or two. Secondly, leave space in your hand luggage for your mobile phone, a charger, any vital medications and maybe a blow-up neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, remember to take your passport, travel docs and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of restricted items differs between airlines, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes tools, metal cutlery, spray paint and flares. Sporting equipment like bows and arrows, and objects that could harm other people, such as firearms and ammunition, can’t come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Comfort really should be your highest priority when deciding what to wear during your flight. Consider your choice of footwear with care too, as swelling of the feet and ankles are quite common. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are always a smart option.
  • Unfortunately, one risk of long-haul flights is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by extended periods of inactivity. To prevent this from happening, make the most of every opportunity to stretch your legs and walk around the cabin. Compression socks and tights are also a great idea to help lower your risk.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Arua?
It’s all about being prepared. We’ve compiled some helpful hints for a fuss-free trip through security. Watch out Arua, here you come:

  • Your travel ID and boarding pass will need to be shown to security personnel. Have them easily accessible so you don’t hold up the line.
  • Next up, both you and your hand luggage will be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Items like your jacket, belt and headphones need to go through the machine.
  • All your electronic devices, including your phone and tablet, will also need to be scanned separately.
  • Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or toothpaste, that you want to take on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
  • Slip-on shoes are a sensible footwear choice as you’re less likely to have to remove them when going through security. Hiking boots and other heavy shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
  • Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, put them in your checked baggage. They won’t be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
