How to survive the flight to Freetown?
Depending on where you’re coming from, your trip to Freetown could be simple and straightforward or it could go on forever. Here are some handy hints that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • Travelling on a plane can be a great experience if you take the right gear. Firstly, you’ll need toiletry items, such as lip balm and hand cream, a spare change of clothes and a good novel. Next, make room in your carry-on bag for your electronic devices, chargers, any daily medications and perhaps a comfy neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, don’t forget to bring your passport, travel documents and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of banned items differs between airlines, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, pocket knives, fuel and fireworks. Sporting equipment like ski poles, and objects that could injure passengers, such as pepper spray and guns, won’t be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The key to a comfortable flight often lies in your choice in clothes. Prepare yourself for varying temperatures by bringing layers. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin begins to cool down. Shoes like sandals and heels are best left for other occasions. Even though they may be your favourites, opt for flat, closed-toed footwear like sneakers. Your feet will thank you later.
  • The serious condition by the name of DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a risk on long-haul flights. It’s the result of blood clotting due to poor circulation. Walking around the cabin and doing regular leg and foot exercises while seated is a great way to prevent this occurring. Wearing a good-quality pair of compression tights or socks can also help.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Freetown?
A little pre-planning before you arrive at the airport can make your trip to Freetown a piece of cake. Read through our handy tips and tricks for a speedy journey through security:

  • Be sure to have your boarding pass and ID easily accessible. They’re the first things you’ll be asked for by airport security.
  • The X-ray machine comes next. Remove anything on you that is likely to beep. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They’ll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
  • All your electronic devices, including your phone and tablet, must also be scanned.
  • Travelling with your favourite hand cream? 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 bring it with you in your carry-on luggage.
  • The right choice of footwear can save you several precious minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
  • Take all prohibited items out of 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.
