We've got the lowdown on how to make your journey a stress-free experience. Follow our top tips and you'll be hightailing it through airport security and having a ball in Ende in no time at all. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- It's simple — first, pack your passport, travel documents, credit cards and medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to while away the time. A juicy novel and a phone crammed with your favorite movies are always good options. If you intend to catch up on some sleep, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some deodorant to ensure you hop off the plane looking and feeling fresh.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of restricted items differs between air carriers, the general rule to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, knives, spray paint and flares. Sporting equipment like bows and arrows, and objects that could harm other people, such as swords and batons, won't be allowed on board either.
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort should be your highest priority when deciding what to wear on your flight. Loose clothing is a wise option, as are flat, slip-on shoes.
- Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Walk around the cabin and give your legs a stretch or do some gentle exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.
