How to survive the flight to Douala?
We’ve got the lowdown on how to make your journey as pain-free as possible. Follow our tips and tricks and you’ll be breezing through the airport and discovering Douala in next to no time.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • Firstly, and most importantly, pack in your passport, travel docs, wallet and medications. Next, you’ll want some in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy novel and a phone filled with your favourite movies are always good options. If you intend to catch more than just forty winks, a comfy neck pillow and some noise-cancelling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, leave some space for a toothbrush and some deodorant to ensure you hop off the plane feeling fresh as a daisy.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Double-check that you don’t have a Swiss Army knife hiding in the bottom of your carry-on luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive substances, such as fuel and fireworks, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

  • The aisles of an airplane are no place for a fashion parade. Don comfortable layers and remember to take a sweater as the temperature can drop inside the cabin during longer flights. Closed-toed, flat shoes are always a good idea too.
  • The result of sustained periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers during long flights. But the great news is there are numerous ways to significantly reduce the risk of developing it. Drink plenty of water, walk up and down the aisles as often as possible and wear compression tights or socks.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Douala?
The secret is to be well prepared before you get to the security gate. That way, you’ll be hopping onto that plane to Douala before you know it. Follow these helpful tips and get your holiday off to a great start:

  • Be sure to have your travel documents and passport within easy reach. They’ll be the first things you’ll be asked to present to security.
  • The X-ray machine is up next. Empty your pockets and remove anything that is likely to set off the scanner’s alarm. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They’ll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
  • All your electronic devices, including your phone and laptop, must also be scanned separately.
  • Any gels or liquids, such as shampoo or hairspray, that you want to bring on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), zip-lock bag.
  • Slip-on shoes are a clever footwear choice as you’re less likely to be asked to remove them when going through security. Safety boots and other bulky shoes are usually subjected to extra screening.
  • Airlines won’t allow any sharp items or pocket knives in the cabin. If you need to bring these kinds of items, check them in.
