Do you have any tips for my flight to Maychew?
Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Maychew could be completely stress-free or it could go on forever. We've pulled together some handy hints that will help you start your next great adventure on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • A plane ride can be easy if you pack the right gear. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletries, such as toothpaste, a toothbrush and some deodorant, a fresh set of clothes and a few magazines. Secondly, leave space in your carry-on bag for your laptop, a charger, your important medications and maybe a comfy neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, remember to take your passport, travel papers and your credit cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of restricted items differs between air carriers, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, drills, spray paint and fireworks. Sporting equipment like baseball bats, and items that could harm other people, such as firearms and swords, are also banned from the cabin.

What to wear on a flight:

  • You'll want to go for comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes by layering up, and opt for flat, easy-to-remove footwear like sneakers.
  • Caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers during long-distance flights. Reduce the risks by staying hydrated, keeping your ankles and legs moving and wearing compression tights or socks.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Maychew?
The secret is to be well organized before you reach airport security. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Maychew in the blink of an eye. Follow these tips and get your trip off to a great start:

  • First things first. Your passport and boarding pass will need to be shown to airport security personnel. Keep them at hand to avoid fumbling around for them.
  • Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your coat, belt, keys and other small items, like coins, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them before your turn arrives.
  • Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go on a tray to be scanned. Don't worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
  • Don't forget to remove liquids and gels from your carry-on bag. They often need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one liter), clear zip-close bag.
  • Slip-on shoes 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.
  • Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
