We've pulled together all the info you need to make your journey a pleasant experience. Follow our tips and tricks and you'll be breezing through airport security and seeing the best of Aralsk in no time flat.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- First things first, put in your passport, important documents, credit cards and daily medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling novel and a phone filled with your favorite movies are some great options. If you hope to catch forty winks, a neck pillow and some earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, leave some space for a few toiletry items to ensure you touchdown looking fresh and ready to go.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Sharp or pointed objects, like a pocket knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosols and fireworks, are also banned.
What to wear on a flight:
- Your goal here is to be as comfortable as you can. Layer up in natural fibers and don't forget to pack a sweater just in case you get chilly. Always go with flat, well-fitting shoes as your feet may swell during the journey. Leave the high heels and hiking boots in your main luggage.
- Most of us have heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of inactivity. There are numerous ways to lessen your risk. Wear a good-quality pair of compression socks, stay hydrated and keep your legs and feet moving. Do a few laps of the cabin or perform some stretches in your seat.
