We've got the lowdown on how to make your flight as stress-free as possible. Follow our tips and you'll be speeding through the airport and discovering Kong Lor before you know it. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The trick to having a hassle-free travel experience is to pack ahead. First up, the essentials: passport, official ID, bank cards and important medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help pass the time, like your laptop or a good read. It's also wise to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of headphones. And of course, don't forget to chuck in toiletry items like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a clean T-shirt.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Pointed or sharp objects, like your trusty Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, chemicals agents and poisons, are also prohibited.
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort should be your priority when choosing what to wear on your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a smart option, as are flat, slip-on shoes.
- The result of sustained periods of immobility, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers during long-haul flights. Lower your risks by staying hydrated, keeping your legs and ankles moving and wearing compression tights or socks.
