Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Andriamena could be completely painless or it could drag on forever. Below are some useful hints that will help you start your next great adventure on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- It's easy — first, put in your passport, official ID, credit cards and medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A juicy book and a phone crammed with your favorite movies are always good options. If you plan to take a short nap, a neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes to ensure you step off the plane feeling fresh as a daisy.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Check carefully that you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) hiding in one of the compartments of your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive products, such as fuel and matches, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).
What to wear on a flight:
- Choose comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes by wearing layers, and pick flat, easy-to-remove footwear like sneakers.
- The result of sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers during long-distance flights. Lower your risks by drinking water, keeping your feet and legs moving and wearing compression tights or socks.
