How to survive the flight to Gisenyi?
Wherever you’re coming from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you prepare well enough. We’ve made a list of handy hints that will get your Gisenyi escape started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • Firstly, and most importantly, pack your passport, travel documents, wallet and vital medications. Next, you’ll need some entertainment to while away the time. A juicy novel and a tablet crammed with your favourite movies are some terrific options. If you hope to take a quick nap, a comfy neck pillow and some noise-cancelling headphones will also be useful. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some cleansing 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 hairspray in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Pointed or sharp objects, like a Swiss Army knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosols and fireworks, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Comfort really should be the goal when picking what to wear during your flight. Consider your footwear carefully too, as swollen ankles and feet are a common side effect of flying. Slightly roomy, flat shoes are always a sensible way to go.
  • A serious condition known as DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a potential risk on long-haul flights. It’s the result of blood clotting due to poor circulation. Walking up and down the aisle and doing foot and leg exercises in your seat helps to prevent this happening. Wearing a pair of compression tights or socks is also a wise idea.

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

  • Airport security personnel first need to know that you have a valid ID and matching travel documents before you’re allowed to proceed any further. Have them ready to show.
  • Your jacket, belt, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your earphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them as it gets closer to your turn.
  • Your electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go through the machine for inspection. Don’t worry though, you’ll be back online in no time.
  • Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or hairspray, 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.
  • There’s a possibility that you’ll be required to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a good idea.
  • Airlines will not allow any sharp items or pocket knives in your carry-on luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked luggage.
