Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Menggatal could be as easy as pie or it could go on forever. We've put together some useful tips that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Traveling on a plane can be a great experience if you take the right things. Firstly, you'll want some basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a clean pair of socks and a good novel. Secondly, find room in your hand luggage for your laptop, a charger, medications and perhaps a blow-up neck pillow as well. Lastly, be sure to take your passport, travel papers and some cash.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Pointed or sharp objects, like a Swiss Army knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, bleaching agents and strong acids, are also restricted.
What to wear on a flight:
- The aisles of a plane are not the place for a fashion parade. Wear comfortable clothes and take a cardigan as the temperature can drop in the cabin. Slightly roomy, flat shoes are always a good idea too.
- Caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers during long-haul flights. But the good news is there are ways to reduce the risk of developing it. Keep your fluids up, wander around the cabin wherever possible and wear compression socks to help improve your circulation.
