Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Bata-ata could be no sweat at all or it could go on forever. Below are some tips that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The trick to having an awesome travel experience is to plan ahead. Start with the essentials: passport, official ID, cash and important medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you occupied, like some electronic gadgets or a good read. You'll also want to pack your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Finally, don't forget to pop in toiletry items like a toothbrush, lip balm and a fresh set of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Leave all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Sharp or pointed objects, like your beloved Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosols and poisons, are also restricted.
What to wear on a flight:
- Choose comfort over style. Prepare for changes in temperature by donning layers, and wear flat, enclosed footwear like sneakers.
- You're probably aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of inactivity. To lessen your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression socks and move your lower limbs often.
