How to survive the flight to South Luangwa National Park?
Wherever you’re jetting in from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you’ve prepared well. We’ve made a list of handy travel tips that will get your South Luangwa National Park escape started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • A plane ride can be a stress-free experience if you bring the right things. Firstly, you’ll need toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a clean pair of socks and something to read. Next, find room in your bag for your mobile phone, a charger, any vital medications and maybe a proper neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, be sure to take your passport, travel papers and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Check carefully that you don’t have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) hiding in the bottom of your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive goods, such as fuel and fireworks, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

  • The goal here is to feel as comfortable as possible. Layer up with loose, natural-fibre clothing and bring a sweater in case it gets cold in the cabin. Always opt for flat, slightly roomy shoes as your feet may swell a little during the journey. Leave the high heels and hiking boots in your checked luggage.
  • Unfortunately, one risk of long flights is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by extended periods of inactivity. To prevent this, take every opportunity to walk around and give your legs a stretch. Compression tights and socks are another great idea to help lower your risk.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to South Luangwa National Park?
The trick is to be well prepared before you get to the security gate. That way, you’ll be boarding that plane to South Luangwa National Park before you know it. Follow these helpful tips and get your holiday off to a flying start:

  • Airport security personnel first need to verify that you have a valid ID and boarding pass before anything else. Have them within easy reach, ready for inspection.
  • Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your belt, coat, keys and other small items, like your earphones, will need to go on a tray through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them as your turn draws near.
  • All electronic gadgets, including your laptop and phone, are also required to be scanned.
  • Remove all liquids and gels from your hand luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each product should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
  • Choosing your footwear wisely can save you valuable minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on sneakers are usually not.
  • Airlines won’t allow any sharp items or pocket knives in your carry-on baggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked baggage.
