How to get through airport security fast when traveling to Unguja
Your journey to Unguja begins the minute you've completed the security checks. We've put together a list of helpful tips and hints to ensure you get through quickly:

  • Be sure you know the whereabouts of your passport and boarding pass. You don't want to hold up the line when you're asked to present them.
  • You'll have to pause the music for a little while. Earphones need to be taken off and put in a bin for X-raying. The same goes for items such as coins and keys.
  • Laptops, tablets and other electronic devices must be placed in separate trays to be X-rayed.
  • When it comes to flying with liquids and gels, every passenger is permitted a quart-sized clear resealable bag to store containers no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).
  • Airport security staff will likely ask you to remove your shoes prior to entering the body scanner. Choose a pair that slip off easily. There's nothing more annoying than having to do up your laces again and again.
  • The list of prohibited items is forever updating. Browse your airline's official website to understand what is not allowed on board their aircraft.
