How to survive the flight to Bazaruto Island?
We’ve got the lowdown on how to make your flight an enjoyable experience. Follow our tips and you’ll be hightailing it through airport security and exploring Bazaruto Island in no time at all.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • A plane trip can be a stress-free experience if you carry the right things. Firstly, you’ll want some toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a spare change of clothes and a good novel. Secondly, make room in your hand luggage for your electronic devices, chargers, your medications and maybe a quality neck pillow as well. Lastly, don’t forget to bring your passport, travel documents and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

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

What to wear on a flight:

  • Your number one priority is to make yourself as comfortable as possible. Don layers of natural fibers and remember to bring a cardigan in case it gets cool in the cabin. Always go with flat, well-fitting shoes as your feet may swell during the journey. Leave the high heels and chunky boots in your main luggage.
  • Unfortunately, one risk of long-distance flying is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged inactivity. To avoid this, make the most of every opportunity to wander around the cabin. Compression socks and tights are another simple way to help reduce this risk.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Bazaruto Island?
It’s easy — be prepared. We’ve rounded up some tips and tricks for an easy trip through airport security. Look out Bazaruto Island, here you come:

  • Airport security personnel first need to determine that you have a valid ID and matching boarding pass before you can proceed any further. Have them ready for inspection.
  • After that, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, remove anything that might set the alarms off. Personal belongings like your coat, belt and earphones need to go through the machine.
  • All your electronic devices, including your tablet and phone, are also required to be separately scanned.
  • Travelling with a new cologne? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it’s stored in a zip-lock bag, you can keep it with you in your carry-on.
  • Lightweight sneakers are a good footwear choice as you’re less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Boots and other bulky shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
  • Airlines will not allow any sharp objects in your carry-on baggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked luggage.
