How to survive the flight to Maputo?
Depending on where you’re coming from, your trip to Maputo could be a piece of cake or it could go on forever. We’ve pulled together some useful travel tips that will help you start your unforgettable escape on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • Firstly, and most importantly, pack in your passport, travel docs, bank cards and medications. Next, you’ll need some entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling novel and a tablet filled with your favourite shows are good options. If you plan to catch forty winks, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some facial wipes so you’ll hop off the plane feeling fresh as a daisy.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Pointed or sharp objects, like a pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosols and matches, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The goal here is to make yourself as comfortable as you can. Don layers of natural-fibre clothing and don’t forget to pack a pullover in case it gets chilly in the cabin. Opt for a pair of flat, well-fitting shoes as your feet may swell a little during the journey. Leave the high heels and chunky boots in your checked luggage.
  • The condition called deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It’s the result of blood clotting due to poor circulation. Walking up and down the aisle and doing leg and foot exercises in your seat is a great way to prevent this from occurring. Wearing a pair of compression socks or tights also helps reduce your risk.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Maputo?
As savvy travellers know, the secret is to be organised before you arrive at the security gate. That way, you’ll be boarding that plane to Maputo in a flash. Follow these tips and get your holiday off to a terrific start:

  • Security personnel first need to establish that you have a valid ID and travel documents before you’re allowed to proceed any further. Have them ready for inspection.
  • The X-ray machine is up next. Remove anything metal on you that is likely to beep. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy jackets or coats. They’ll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
  • For just a few minutes, you’ll have to unplug from the digital world. Your laptop, phone and any other electronics will need to be sent through the scanner.
  • Want to bring along your favourite hand cream? As long as it’s in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it’s stored in a zip-lock bag, it’s fine to bring with you in your carry-on.
  • There’s a good chance you’ll need to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing slip-on sneakers is always a clever idea.
  • Airlines will not allow any sharp items or pocket knives in your carry-on luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked baggage.
