If you're poorly prepared, traveling can be testing. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these helpful hints and enjoy a comfortable start to your vacation in Bloemhof. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- It's simple — first, put in your passport, official ID, cash and daily medications. Next, you'll need some in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy novel and a laptop crammed with your favorite shows are good options. If you plan to catch a few z's, a neck pillow and some noise-canceling headphones will also be useful. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some facial wipes to ensure you arrive feeling fresh and ready to go.
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 compartments of your hand luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive products, like aerosols and matches, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort should be your main priority when choosing what to wear on your flight. Loose clothing is a wise option, as are flat, closed-toe shoes.
- Most travelers are aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of inactivity. To reduce your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression socks and move your legs and feet often.
