How to survive the flight to Bahir Dar?
If you’re not prepared, air travel can be a real challenge. But there’s no need to panic. Follow these helpful hints for a pleasant start to your time in Bahir Dar.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • Firstly, and most importantly, put in your passport, travel docs, wallet and daily medications. Next, you’ll need some in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy book and a tablet filled with your favourite shows are some fantastic options. If you intend to catch forty winks, a quality neck pillow and some noise-cancelling headphones will also be useful. Finally, squeeze in a toothbrush and some facial wipes to ensure you touchdown feeling fresh as a daisy.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

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

What to wear on a flight:

  • The main aim is to feel as comfortable as possible. Layer yourself up in breathable clothing and take a cardigan in case you get cold. Pick roomy, flat shoes as it’s possible that your feet and ankles will swell a little during the flight. Leave the stilettos and hiking boots in your luggage.
  • Most of us have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of sitting. There are plenty of ways to lessen your risk. Wear a pair of compression socks, stay well hydrated and remember to keep your legs and feet moving. Wander up and down the aisles of the cabin or perform some simple exercises in your seat.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Bahir Dar?
The answer is simple — be organised. We’ve put together some handy tips and tricks for a hassle-free trip through security. Watch out Bahir Dar, here you come:

  • Your ID and travel documents will need to be presented to security personnel. Have them easily accessible so you don’t hold up the line.
  • Next up is the X-ray machine. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They’ll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
  • Your electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go through the machine for inspection. Don’t worry, you’ll be back online soon enough.
  • Want to bring along your favourite perfume? No problem. As long as the volume is no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it’s stored in a zip-lock bag, you can keep it with you in your carry-on baggage.
  • The right choice of footwear can save you a few precious minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
  • Sharp items like knives are not allowed in the cabin. They’ll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked bags.
