Do you believe in coincidence? I don’t and that is better left for another post. Just wanted you to see what Dave Herbert, Founder and Managing Director of African Travels, says about feet and flying (You did read my previous post, correct????) His other tips are good ones, too!


By Dave Herbert, CTC,
Founder & Managing Director



WHEN FLYING TO AFRICA:
DO wear warm socks and comfortable shoes on the airplane. Feet can swell up during the flight and tight shoes may no longer fit when you land!

DO take (at least) an extra set of underwear on the plane. In case your luggage is lost or delayed.

DO double-check your seat assignment when you arrive at the airport. Last minute airplane equipment changes can result in unexpected changes to your reserved seat assignments.

DO take on board a small bag that you can take out of your carry-on and store in the seat pocket or under your seat. Keep flight essentials in this such as reading book, toothbrush, tissues, medication, gum etc. Then you don’t need to access the overhead bin during the flight.
