Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Aba could be completely stress-free or it could drag on forever. Here are some useful tips that will help you start your next big adventure on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- A plane trip can be a pleasure if you pack the right gear. Firstly, you'll want some basic toiletries, such as toothpaste, a toothbrush and some deodorant, a spare pair of socks and a magazine or two. Secondly, make room in your carry-on bag for your mobile phone, a charger, your medications and maybe a proper neck pillow too. Lastly, remember to take your passport, travel documents and your credit cards.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Check carefully that you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) lurking in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive substances, such as bleach and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).
What to wear on a flight:
- Your aim here is to feel as comfortable as possible. Go for slip-on footwear, dress in loose, breathable clothing and don't forget to bring a jacket in case you get cold in the cabin.
- Most travelers have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To minimize your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression tights or socks and move your legs and feet often.
