Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Camamu could be no sweat at all 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:
- The trick to having a stress-free flight experience is to plan ahead. First up, the essentials: passport, travel documents, credit cards and daily medications. Next, take on board items that'll help while away those hours, like your laptop or a few magazines. You'll also want to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earphones. And of course, don't forget to chuck in toiletry items like a toothbrush, lip balm and a fresh set of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Pack all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Sharp objects, like your treasured Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, flares and matches, are also prohibited.
What to wear on a flight:
- The aisles of a plane are no fashion runway. Layer up with comfortable clothing and remember to take a cardigan as it can get chilly inside the cabin during long-haul flights. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are also a wise idea.
- Caused by sustained periods of immobility, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a condition that can affect some passengers on long-distance flights. But the good news is there are numerous ways to lower your risk of developing it. Stay well hydrated, wander around the cabin wherever possible and wear compression socks to help improve your circulation.
