Do you have any tips for my flight to El Aioun?
Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to El Aioun could be completely painless or it could go on forever. We've pulled together some handy tips that will help you start your next big adventure on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • First things first, pack in your passport, travel documents, wallet and daily medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to while away the hours. A thrilling novel and a laptop crammed with your favorite shows are good options. If you hope to catch up on some sleep, a neck pillow and some noise-canceling headphones will also be useful. Finally, leave some space for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes to ensure you arrive at your destination feeling fresh and raring to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • While the list of prohibited items can differ between airlines, the general rule to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, pocket knives, spray paint and flares. Sporting equipment like ski poles, and objects that could harm passengers, such as firearms and ammunition, aren't allowed in the cabin either.

What to wear on a flight:

  • Your main priority is to be as comfortable as possible. Choose flat, closed-toe shoes, dress in loose, breathable clothing and remember to take a pullover in case it gets chilly in the cabin.
  • The result of lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers during long-haul flights. Reduce the risks by drinking water, keeping your legs moving and wearing compression socks to help improve your circulation.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to El Aioun?
As seasoned travelers know, the secret is to be organized before you arrive at the security gate. That way, you'll be boarding that plane to El Aioun in no time flat. Follow these helpful tips and get your vacation off to a fantastic start:

  • First things first. Your travel ID and boarding pass will need to be inspected by security personnel. Keep them handy so you don't hold up the line.
  • After that, both you and your carry-on bag will be X-rayed. To speed things up, remove anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Items like your jacket, belt and earphones will be required to go through the machine.
  • For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from the digital world. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic gadgets must also be sent through the scanner.
  • Want to bring along your favorite perfume or cologne? As long as it's in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a clear zip-close bag, you're allowed to bring it with you in your carry-on baggage.
  • Slip-on shoes are a practical footwear choice as you're less likely to be asked to remove them when going through security. Boots and other bulky shoes are usually subjected to additional screening.
  • Take all prohibited items out of your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them in your checked suitcase. They won't be allowed in the cabin.
