Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Kotlik could be simple and straightforward or it could drag on forever. We've pulled together some tips that will help you start your next big adventure on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Air travel can be a cruisy experience if you've got all the right things. First of all you'll need basic toiletry items, such as lip balm and hand cream, a clean pair of socks and a good book. Next, leave space in your bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, your important medications and maybe a cozy neck pillow too. Lastly, remember to bring your passport, travel docs and some money.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Make sure you don't have a Swiss Army knife lurking in one of the compartments of your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable products, such as bleach and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).
What to wear on a flight:
- The aisles of an aircraft are no place for a fashion parade. Layer your clothing and choose shoes that are enclosed, flat and easy to slip on and off.
- 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 feet and legs moving and wearing compression tights or socks.
