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

  • First and foremost, put in your passport, official ID, credit cards and daily medications. Next, you’ll need some in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling novel and a phone filled with your favourite shows are some great options. If you hope to take a quick nap, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, squeeze in a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes to ensure you touchdown looking fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Sharp or pointed objects, like your beloved Swiss Army knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, bleaching agents and gasoline, are also not allowed.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The goal here is to be as comfortable as possible. Layer yourself up in natural-fibre clothing and don’t forget to pack a cardigan just in case you get cold. Opt for a pair of well-fitting, flat shoes as your feet may swell a little during the journey. Leave the high heels and chunky boots in your checked luggage.
  • Unfortunately, one risk of long-haul flights is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by extended periods of inactivity. To prevent this, take every opportunity to wander around the cabin. Compression tights and socks are another simple way to help lower your risk.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Matata?
It’s all about being prepared. We’ve pulled together some useful tips for a fuss-free trip through airport security. Watch out Matata, here you come:

  • Airport security personnel first need to determine that you have a valid ID and travel documents before you can proceed any further. Have them in your hand, ready for inspection.
  • Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your belt, coat, keys and other small items, like coins, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them as your turn draws near.
  • Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go on a tray to be scanned. Don’t worry, you’ll be back online soon enough.
  • Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or hand cream, that you want to bring on board must be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, they all must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
  • Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several valuable minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
  • Sharp items such as knives and scissors can’t be taken on board. They’ll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked bags.
