No matter where you're coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you've prepared well. We've put together a list of handy hints that will help get your Janakpur escape started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- A plane ride can be a stress-free experience if you take the right stuff. First of all you'll need basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a fresh change of clothes and a good book. Secondly, make room in your hand luggage for your laptop, a charger, your important medications and perhaps a comfy neck pillow too. Lastly, be sure to take your passport, travel docs and your credit cards.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp objects, like a pocket knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, bleaching agents and strong acids, are also banned.
What to wear on a flight:
- Your goal here is to be as comfortable as possible. Opt for shoes that are easy to slip on and off, dress in loose, natural fibers and remember to bring a jacket in case you get chilly in the cabin.
- It's likely you've heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To lessen your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression socks and move your lower limbs often.
