We've pulled together all the info you need to make your flight as pain-free as possible. Follow our top tips and you'll be zooming through the airport and having a blast in Pumpuri in next to no time.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Firstly, and most importantly, pack in your passport, travel docs, cash and medications. Next, you'll want some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling novel and a phone filled with your favorite movies are some terrific options. If you hope to catch forty winks, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, leave some space for a toothbrush and some deodorant to ensure you hop off the plane feeling fresh and raring to go.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Check carefully that you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) lurking in one of the compartments of your hand luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable goods, such as fuel and matches, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort really should be your highest priority when selecting what to wear on board. Consider your footwear choice with care too, as swollen feet and ankles are a common occurrence. Roomy, closed-toed shoes are your best bet.
- The result of lengthy periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers during long flights. The good news is there are proven ways to significantly reduce the risk of developing it. Stay well hydrated, walk up and down the aisles as much as you can and wear compression socks or tights.
