Do you have any tips for my flight to Welkom?
No matter where you're coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you've planned ahead. We've put together a list of handy travel tips that will help get your Welkom escape started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The trick to having an awesome flight experience is to pack in advance. Start with the essentials: passport, travel documents, credit cards and daily medications. Next, bring items that'll help keep you entertained, like some electronic gadgets or a thrilling book. You'll also want to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones. Last but not least, be sure to toss in toiletry items like a toothbrush, lip balm and a spare set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of banned items can differ between air carriers, the general rule to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, drills, fuels and bleaching agents. Sporting equipment like bows and arrows, and objects that could harm other people, such as pepper spray and firearms, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Go for comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes in the cabin by dressing in layers, and opt for closed-toe, flat footwear like sneakers.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by extended periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to wander around the cabin or do some gentle exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Welkom?
Being prepared before your flight can make your getaway to Welkom quick and painless. Read through our handy tips for a swift journey past security:

  • First things first. Your travel ID and boarding pass will need to be inspected by airport security. Have them close by so you don't hold up the queue.
  • Next up, both you and your hand luggage must be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that might set the alarms off. Personal belongings such as your coat, belt and headphones will be required to go through the machine.
  • All your electronics, including your tablet and phone, are also required to be separately scanned.
  • Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or hand cream, that you want to take on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). They must also all fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
  • There's a possibility that you'll be asked to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes 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 in the cabin.
