Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Balanga could be no sweat at all or it could drag on forever. Here are some useful travel tips that will help you start your unforgettable escape on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The trick to having a stress-free travel experience is to pack in advance. So, let's start with the basics: passport, travel docs, bank cards and any vital medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you entertained, like your laptop or a thrilling book. You'll also want to pack your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Last but not least, don't forget to chuck in toiletry items like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a clean set of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Sharp or pointed objects, like your precious pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as spray paint, flares and strong acids, are also prohibited.
What to wear on a flight:
- The aisles of an aircraft are no place for a fashion parade. Dress in comfortable layers and pick shoes that are flat, enclosed and easy to pull on and off.
- Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clots forming due to inactivity and poor circulation, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression tights or socks.
