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

  • The secret to having an amazing flight experience is to be prepared. First up, the essentials: passport, official ID, credit cards and medications. Next, bring items that'll help keep you busy, like some electronic devices or a few magazines. You'll also want to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones. Finally, don't forget to chuck in toiletry items like a toothbrush, lip balm and a clean set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Double-check that you don't have a pocket knife hiding in the bottom of your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive substances, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

  • You'll want to choose comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes by layering up, and opt for flat, slightly roomy footwear like sneakers.
  • Caused by sustained periods of immobility, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers during long flights. Reduce the risks by staying hydrated, keeping your ankles and legs moving and wearing compression socks to help your circulation.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Loumbila?
A little pre-planning before your flight will make your getaway to Loumbila a piece of cake. Below are some handy tips and tricks for a speedy journey through security:

  • Airport security personnel first need to verify that you have a valid passport and travel documents before you can proceed any further. Keep them close by.
  • The X-ray machine comes next. Remove anything on you that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes things like headphones or earphones, as well as your coat or jacket. They'll need to be placed on the conveyor belt for screening.
  • For just a few minutes, you'll need to unplug from technology. Your laptop, phone and any other electronic gadgets also need to go through the scanner.
  • Any liquids or gels, such as hair oil or hand cream, that you want to take on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
  • Lightweight sneakers are a practical footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when going through security. Boots and other heavy shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
  • Airlines will not allow any sharp or pointed objects in your carry-on luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked luggage.
