How to survive the flight to Matema?
We’ve pulled together all the info you need to make your flight a stress-free experience. Follow our tips and you’ll be speeding through airport security and having a ball in Matema in no time.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • The trick to having an awesome flight experience is to plan ahead. First up, the essentials: passport, travel documents, cash and vital medications. Next, bring on board items that’ll help keep you entertained, like some electronic gadgets or a thrilling book. It’s also wise to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. And of course, don’t forget to toss in toiletry items like a toothbrush, lip balm and a clean T-shirt.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

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

What to wear on a flight:

  • The main aim is to be as comfortable as possible. Dress in loose, breathable clothing and don’t forget to pack a jacket in case it gets chilly in the cabin. Opt for well-fitting, flat shoes as your feet may swell a little during the journey. Leave the high heels and heavy boots in your luggage.
  • Unfortunately, a risk of long flights is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by extended periods of inactivity. To prevent this, make the most of every opportunity to walk around the cabin and stretch your legs. Compression socks and tights are also a great idea to help minimize this risk.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Matema?
As seasoned travellers know, the secret is to be organised before you arrive at the security gate. That way, you’ll be stepping onto that plane to Matema in next to no time. Follow these helpful tips and get your holiday off to a spectacular start:

  • Your ID and travel documents will need to be presented to airport security personnel. Have them close by to avoid fumbling around for them.
  • After that, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that is likely to trigger the alarm. Items such as your belt, coat and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
  • For just a few minutes, you’ll need to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic devices will need to be sent through the scanner.
  • Remember to remove gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They often need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit in a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
  • Slip-on shoes are a clever footwear choice as you’re less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Hiking 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, put them in your checked baggage. They won’t be allowed on board and will be confiscated.
