Question 10

How to survive the flight to Lalibela?

Accepted Answer

Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you're well organised. Check out these essential travel tips that will get your Lalibela escape started on the right foot.

What to pack in your hand luggage:

First, put in your passport, travel documents, bank cards and daily medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A thrilling novel and a laptop crammed with your favourite shows are some great options. If you intend to catch more than just forty winks, a quality neck pillow and some noise-cancelling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes to ensure you hop off the plane feeling fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

While the list of restricted items can differ between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, pocket knives, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sports equipment like ski poles, and objects that could injure passengers, such as firearms and ammunition, can't come on board with you either.

What to wear on a flight:

The key to a comfortable flight is as simple as the clothes you wear. Prepare yourself for varying temperatures by layering up. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin gets chilly. Shoes like sandals and heels are best left in your suitcase. Even though they may be your favourites, go for flat, closed-toed footwear like sneakers. Your feet will appreciate it.
It's likely you've heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of inactivity. There's lots you can do to lower your risk. Don a pair of compression tights or socks, stay well hydrated and move your legs and feet. Walk the aisles of the cabin or try out some simple stretches in your seat.

Question 11

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

Accepted Answer

A little pre-planning before your flight will help make your getaway to Lalibela quick and painless. Here are some top tips for a swift journey past security:

First things first. Your travel documents and ID will need to be presented to airport security. Keep them someplace accessible so you don't have to dig around for them.
Next up is the X-ray machine. Remove anything on you that is likely to set off the alarm. This includes things like earphones or headphones, as well as heavy coats or jackets. They'll all need to go on the X-ray conveyor belt.
Electronic devices like laptops and phones will also have to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry, you'll be back online in no time.
Remove all gels and liquids from your carry-on bag. They usually 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 inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
There's a good chance you'll be asked to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a good idea.
Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp objects like a pocket knife or tools, pack them safely away in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed on board.
