Question 10

How to survive the flight to Harare?

Accepted Answer

No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you've prepared well enough. Follow these top travel tips that will help get your Harare holiday started on the right note.

What to pack in your hand luggage:

Travelling on a plane can be a cruisy experience if you've got all the right gear. Firstly, you'll need toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare pair of socks and a magazine or two. Next, leave space in your bag for your mobile phone, a charger, your medications and maybe a proper neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, remember to bring your passport, travel docs and some money.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

While the list of banned items differs between air carriers, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, blades, aerosol cans and flares. Sports equipment like golf clubs, and items that could harm other people, such as pepper spray and firearms, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

The best way to ensure a comfortable flight often lies in your choice of clothes. Prepare for changes in temperature by layering up. That way you'll stay nice and warm if the cabin starts to cool down. Shoes like sandals and heels are best left in your checked suitcase. Instead, opt for flat, closed-toed footwear like sneakers. Your feet will appreciate it.
The result of sustained periods of immobility, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers on long-distance flights. But the good news is there are ways to reduce the risk of developing it. Stay hydrated, wander through the cabin as often as you can and wear compression socks to help improve your circulation.

Question 11

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Harare?

Accepted Answer

The answer is — be prepared. We've pulled together some useful tips for an easy trip through airport security. Look out Harare, here you come:

Have your passport and travel documents at hand. They're the first things you'll be asked to show at airport security.
After that, both you and your carry-on luggage will be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that might trigger the alarms. Items like your belt, coat and earphones need to go through the machine.
For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your phone, laptop and any other electronic gadgets will also need to be sent through the scanner.
Don't forget to remove gels and liquids from your hand luggage. They often need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each product should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
It's also possible you'll be asked to take your shoes off to be X-rayed, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a clever idea.
Airlines will not allow any sharp or pointed objects in your hand luggage. If you must bring these kinds of items, pack them in your checked luggage.
