If you're not prepared, travelling can be overwhelming. But there's no need to panic. Follow these helpful hints and enjoy a trouble-free start to your time in Muyinga. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• A plane ride can be a cruisy experience if you pack the right gear. First things first, you'll need toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a fresh set of clothes and a few magazines. Next, leave space in your bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, any medications and maybe a neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, remember to bring your passport, travel documents and some cash.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Make sure you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) hiding in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive goods, such as fuel and fireworks, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).

What to wear on a flight:

• Your aim is to be as comfortable as possible. Pick a pair of flat, closed-toe shoes, dress in loose, natural-fibre clothing and remember to bring a jacket in case it gets chilly in the cabin.
• You've probably heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. To minimize your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression tights or socks and do gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat.

A little pre-planning before you arrive at the airport can make your getaway to Muyinga a pleasure. Below you'll find some handy tips for a speedy journey past security:

• Security personnel first need to determine that you have a valid ID and matching travel documents before anything else. Have them close by, ready for inspection.
• Next up, both you and your carry-on luggage must be X-rayed. To speed things up, take off anything that might set the alarms off. Items like your jacket, belt and earphones need to go through the machine.
• Your electronic gadgets like phones and laptops will also have to go through the machine for inspection. No need to worry though, you'll be back online before you know it.
• Don't forget to remove liquids and gels from your hand luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one litre), clear zip-close bag.
• Lightweight sneakers are a clever footwear choice as you're less likely to have to remove them when passing through security. Big boots and other heavy shoes are often subjected to extra screening.
• Sharp items are prohibited in the cabin. They'll be confiscated at security, so pack them in your checked bags.
