How to survive the flight to Cotonou?
Depending on where you’re coming from, your flight to Cotonou could be simple and straightforward or it could drag on forever. Below are some handy tips that will help you start your next big adventure on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • Air travel can be a stress-free experience if you carry the right things. First of all you’ll need basic toiletry items, such as deodorant, toothpaste and a toothbrush, a clean pair of socks and something to read. Secondly, find a spot in your hand luggage for your phone, tablet and chargers, any daily medications and maybe a neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to bring your passport, travel documents and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Check carefully that you don’t have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) lurking in your hand luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive substances, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

  • Comfort should be your priority when deciding what to wear on board. Consider your choice of footwear carefully too, as swollen feet and ankles can be a side effect of flying. Shoes which are flat and slightly roomy are always a good idea.
  • A condition known as DVT (deep vein thrombosis) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It’s the result of blood clots forming due to inactivity and poor circulation. Doing leg and foot exercises in your seat helps to prevent this from occurring. Wearing a high-quality pair of compression tights or socks also helps reduce the risk.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Cotonou?
Being organised before your flight can make your trip to Cotonou a piece of cake. Below are some useful tips for a speedy journey past security:

  • Security personnel first need to see that you have a valid passport and matching travel documents before anything else. Have them close by, ready for inspection.
  • After that, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that might trigger the alarms. Personal belongings such as your jacket, belt and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
  • For just a few moments, you’ll need to unplug from the digital world. Your tablet, phone and any other electronics must also go through the scanner.
  • Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or hand cream, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • Choosing your footwear wisely can save you valuable minutes. Hiking or heavy-style boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes usually aren’t.
  • Airlines won’t allow any pocket knives or other sharp items to come on board with you. If you need to bring these kinds of items, check them in.
