We've got the lowdown on how to make your flight a stress-free experience. Follow our tips and tricks and you'll be hightailing it through airport security and having a ball in Suibin County in no time at all. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- A plane trip can be a comfortable experience if you've got all the right things. Firstly, you'll want some basic toiletry items, such as lip balm and hand cream, a spare pair of socks and a few magazines. Next, find room in your hand luggage for your electronic devices, chargers, your medications and perhaps a cozy neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget to bring your passport, travel documents and your credit cards.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Pack all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Pointed or sharp objects, like your precious pocket knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, flares and poisons, are also restricted.
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort should be your main concern when deciding what to wear on your flight. Loose clothing is a smart choice, as are flat, closed-toe shoes.
- Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to poor circulation and inactivity, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks.
