Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you've prepared well enough. Take a peek at these handy tips and tricks that will get your Boguchar vacation started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The trick to having a stress-free flight experience is to plan ahead. First up, the essentials: passport, travel documents, bank cards and any vital medications. Next, take on board items that'll help while away those hours, like some electronic devices or a thrilling novel. It's also a wise idea to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earphones. Last but not least, be sure to toss in toiletry items like a toothbrush, deodorant and a spare change of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp or pointed objects, like your precious Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, flares and strong acids, are also not allowed.
What to wear on a flight:
- You'll want to go for comfort over style. Prepare for changes in temperature by dressing in layers, and wear flat, closed-toe shoes like slip-ons.
- The result of sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers during long-haul flights. Lower your risks by staying hydrated, keeping your legs and ankles moving and wearing compression tights or socks.
