How to survive the flight to Swakopmund?
We’ve rounded up all the info you need to make your journey a pleasant experience. Follow our top tips and you’ll be speeding through airport security and having a ball in Swakopmund in no time flat.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The trick to having a pain-free travel experience is to plan ahead. First up, the essentials: passport, boarding pass, bank cards and important medications. Next, bring items that’ll help pass the time, like your laptop or a juicy novel. You’ll also want to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Last but not least, don’t forget to toss in toiletry items like a toothbrush, lip balm and a fresh set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Double-check that you don’t have a Swiss Army knife lurking in one of the zippers of your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable goods, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

  • The best way to ensure a comfortable flight can be as simple as your choice of clothing. Prepare for temperature changes by layering up. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin begins to cool down. Shoes like flip flops and heels are best left for other occasions. Instead, go for flat, closed-toed footwear like sneakers. Your feet will appreciate it.
  • Most travellers are aware of DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of sitting. There are plenty of ways to lessen your risk. Wear a pair of compression tights or socks, stay well hydrated and keep your legs and feet moving. Wander around the cabin or perform some simple exercises in your seat.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Swakopmund?
A little pre-planning before your flight will make your trip to Swakopmund easy and painless. Below you’ll find some handy tips for a speedy journey past security:

  • Your travel documents and ID will need to be presented to security personnel. Keep them handy to avoid fumbling around for them.
  • Next up is the X-ray machine. Empty your pockets and remove anything metal that is likely to set off the scanner’s alarm. This includes items 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 need to unplug from the digital world. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic gadgets must also go through the scanner.
  • Any liquids or gels, such as shampoo or hand cream, that you want to take on board must be no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), zip-lock bag.
  • It’s also likely that you’ll be asked to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a clever idea.
  • Sharp or pointed objects (like knives and scissors) are not allowed in the cabin. They’ll be seized at security, so put them in your checked baggage.
