Do you have any tips for my flight to Thika?
We've pulled together all the info you need to make your flight a pleasant experience. Follow our tips and you'll be hightailing it through airport security and seeing the best of Thika in next to no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • First of all, pack your passport, travel documents, wallet and medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling book and a phone filled with your favorite movies are good options. If you hope to take a short snooze, a quality neck pillow and some noise-canceling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, find room for a few toiletry items so you'll hop off the plane looking and feeling fresh.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Check carefully that you don't have sharp or pointed objects hiding in the bottom of your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive substances, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

  • The aisles of a plane are no place for a fashion parade. Wear layers and opt for shoes that are roomy, flat and easy to pull on and off.
  • Caused by sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers during long-haul flights. Reduce the risks by drinking water, keeping your ankles and legs moving and wearing compression tights or socks.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Thika?
It's easy — be prepared. We've pulled together some tips and tricks for a speedy trip through security. Look out Thika, here you come:

  • Security personnel first need to establish that you have a valid ID and matching boarding pass before you're allowed to proceed any further. Keep them close by.
  • The X-ray machine comes next. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to set off the scanner's alarm. This includes items like headphones or earphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
  • Your electronic gadgets like phones and laptops will also have to go through the machine for inspection. No need to worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
  • Traveling with your favorite perfume? No problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, you're permitted to bring it with you in your carry-on baggage.
  • The right choice of footwear can save you several minutes. Boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Lightweight sneakers are usually not.
  • Airlines will not allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in the cabin. If you need to bring these kinds of items, pack them safely in your checked baggage.
