Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a seamless experience if you're well prepared. Follow these essential travel tips that will help get your Klakar vacation started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The secret to having an amazing flight experience is to pack ahead. So, let's start with the basics: passport, travel documents, credit cards and medications. Next, bring items that'll help keep you busy, like some electronic devices or a juicy novel. It's also wise to pack your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of headphones. And of course, be sure to chuck in toiletry items like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a spare set of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of banned items differs between air carriers, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes box cutters, razor blades, fuel and fireworks. Sports equipment like bows and arrows, and items that could harm other people, such as firearms and ammunition, aren't allowed in the cabin either.
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort should be your number one priority when choosing what to wear on your flight. Loose clothing is a smart option, as are flat, closed-toe shoes.
- Caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers during long flights. Reduce the risks by staying hydrated, keeping your ankles and legs moving and wearing compression socks or tights.
