Do you have any tips for my flight to Algiers?

Accepted Answer

If you're poorly prepared, airports and flying can be tough. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these handy hints and enjoy a pain-free start to your holiday in Algiers. What to pack in your hand luggage:

Firstly, and most importantly, put in your passport, travel docs, credit cards and vital medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling novel and a laptop filled with your favourite movies are always good options. If you hope to catch more than just forty winks, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, squeeze in a toothbrush and some facial wipes so you'll arrive looking fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

Double-check that you don't have a Swiss Army knife lurking in one of the zippers of your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable products, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

Comfort should be your main priority when deciding what to wear during your flight. Loose clothing is a sensible option, as are enclosed shoes like sneakers.
Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Make a point of walking around the cabin or do some simple exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.

Question 11

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

Accepted Answer

Being organised before you get to the airport can make your getaway to Algiers a pleasure. Read through our useful tips for a stress-free journey past security:

Airport security personnel first need to verify that you have a valid ID and matching boarding pass before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them ready to show.
Next up, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that might set the alarms off. Personal belongings like your belt, jacket and earphones need to go through the machine.
Your electronic gadgets like phones and laptops will also have to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry, you'll be back online before you know it.
Remove all liquids and gels from your carry-on bag. They often need to be sent through the X-ray machine separately. Each item should be no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
It's also likely that you'll need to take your shoes off for scanning, so wearing lightweight sneakers is always a smart idea.
Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them safely away in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
