We've rounded up all the info you need to make your journey as enjoyable as possible. Follow our tips and you'll be speeding through airport security and having a ball in Sugas Bai in no time at all. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The trick to having an amazing flight experience is to pack in advance. First up, the essentials: passport, travel docs, credit cards and medications. Next, take on board items that'll help while away those hours, like some electronic devices or a few magazines. It's also smart to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of earphones. Last but not least, be sure to toss in toiletries like a toothbrush, lip balm and a clean T-shirt.
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 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 aerosol cans, spray paint and gasoline, are also prohibited.
What to wear on a flight:
- The aisles of an airplane aren't the place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfortable clothing and opt for shoes that are closed-toe, flat and easy to slip on and off.
- Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-distance flights. It results from blood clotting due to poor circulation and inactivity, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression tights or socks.
