How to survive the flight to Skukuza?
We’ve pulled together all the info you need to make your journey as enjoyable as possible. Follow our tips and you’ll be speeding through airport security and enjoying Skukuza in no time.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The trick to having a great flight experience is to pack ahead. First up, the essentials: passport, travel docs, cash and daily medications. Next, bring on board items that’ll help keep you entertained, like some electronic devices or a good book. It’s also a wise idea to pack your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. Last but not least, be sure to squeeze in toiletries like a toothbrush, lip balm and a clean set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of banned items differs between airlines, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, drills, aerosol cans and flares. Sports equipment like ice skates, and objects that could injure passengers, such as firearms and swords, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Your aim here is to feel as comfortable as you can. Layer yourself up in natural-fibre clothing and don’t forget to pack a jacket in case it gets cool. Opt for a pair of flat, slightly roomy shoes as your feet may swell during the flight. Leave the high heels and hiking boots in your luggage.
  • A condition known as DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a potential risk on long-haul flights. It’s the result of blood clots forming due to inactivity and poor circulation. Doing regular foot and leg exercises while seated is a great way to prevent this from occurring. Wearing a good-quality pair of compression socks or tights can also help.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Skukuza?
It’s simple — be prepared. We’ve compiled some useful tips for an easy trip through airport security. Look out Skukuza, here you come:

  • Airport security personnel first need to establish that you have a valid passport and boarding pass before anything else. Keep them within easy reach.
  • The X-ray machine is up next. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as bulky coats or jackets. They’ll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
  • For just a few moments, you’ll have to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, tablet and any other electronics will need to be sent through the scanner.
  • Travelling with your favourite cologne or perfume? No problem. As long as it’s in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it’s stored in a clear zip-close bag, it’s fine to bring with you on board.
  • It’s also possible you’ll be asked to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a smart idea.
  • Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, put them in your checked luggage. They won’t be allowed on board.
