How to survive the flight to Sheikh Zayed City?

Accepted Answer

We've got the lowdown on how to make your journey as pain-free as possible. Follow our insider tips and you'll be hightailing it through airport security and exploring Sheikh Zayed City before you know it.

What to pack in your hand luggage:

The secret to having a great travel experience is to be prepared. First up, the essentials: passport, travel documents, credit cards and vital medications. Next, bring items that'll help pass the time, like some electronic gadgets or a juicy novel. It's also a wise idea to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of earphones. Finally, don't forget to squeeze in toiletries like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a spare set of clothes.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

While the list of restricted items differs between airlines, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, drills, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sporting equipment like baseball bats, and items that could harm passengers, such as swords and batons, won't be allowed on board either.

What to wear on a flight:

Comfort should always be your priority when deciding what to wear during your flight. Consider your footwear with care too, as swelling of the feet and ankles are a common side effect of flying. Flat shoes which are slightly roomy are your best bet.
The result of sustained periods of immobility, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers during long flights. But the great news is there are proven ways to reduce the risk of developing it. Stay hydrated, walk up and down the aisles as often as possible and wear compression socks or tights.

Question 11

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Sheikh Zayed City?

Accepted Answer

As savvy travellers know, the secret is to be well organised before you get to airport security. That way, you'll be hopping onto that plane to Sheikh Zayed City before you know it. Follow these helpful tips and get your holiday off to a spectacular start:

Security personnel first need to determine that you have a valid ID and matching travel documents before you're allowed to proceed any further. Keep them close by.
Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To make the process quick and painless, take off anything that is likely to set the alarm off. Personal belongings such as your coat, belt and earphones need to go through the machine.
All your electronic devices, including your phone and tablet, are also required to be scanned.
Any gels or liquids, such as perfume or toothpaste, that you want to take on board need to be in containers no greater than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters). Also, everything must fit inside a quart-size (one litre), clear zip-lock bag.
The right choice of footwear can save you a few precious minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes are usually not.
Pocket knives and other sharp items are not allowed in the cabin. They'll be seized at security, so pack them safely away in your checked bags.
