Accepted Answer

We've rounded up all the info you need to make your journey as pain-free as possible. Follow our insider tips and you'll be zooming through airport security and seeing the best of Cape Town in no time flat.

What to pack in your hand luggage:

First and foremost, pack in your passport, travel docs, bank cards and medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to while away the hours. A thrilling book and a laptop crammed with your favorite shows are some great options. If you hope to catch forty winks, a comfy neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, leave some space for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes so you'll arrive feeling fresh as a daisy.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

While the list of restricted items can differ between airlines, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, blades, fireworks and fuel. Sporting equipment like hockey sticks, and objects that could harm passengers, such as pepper spray and guns, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

Your aim here is to make yourself as comfortable as you can. Layer up in natural fibers and bring a cardigan in case you get cold. Always go with flat, well-fitting shoes as your feet may swell during the flight. Leave the high heels and heavy boots in your checked luggage.
Caused by sustained periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a condition that can affect passengers during long-haul flights. The good news is there are numerous ways to significantly reduce the risk of developing it. Stay hydrated, get up and walk around the cabin as much as possible and wear compression tights or socks.

Question 11

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Cape Town?

Accepted Answer

As savvy travelers know, the secret is to be well organized before you get to airport security. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to Cape Town in next to no time. Follow these tips and get your vacation off to a flying start:

Have your passport and boarding pass handy. They're the first items you'll be asked for by security.
Time to strip down. Well sort of. Your belt, jacket, keys and other small items, like your earphones, will need to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process easier by removing them before your turn.
For just a few minutes, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your phone, tablet and any other electronics will also need to go through the scanner.
Traveling with your favorite hand cream? As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-lock bag, you can bring it with you in your carry-on bag.
Choosing your footwear wisely can save you several valuable minutes. Hiking boots are often required to be removed and X-rayed separately. Slip-on shoes usually aren't.
Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
