We've rounded up all the info you need to make your journey as pain-free as possible. Follow our tips and you'll be cruising through the airport and enjoying Daharki in next to no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Flying can be a comfortable experience if you carry the right gear. First things first, you'll need basic toiletries, such as lip balm and hand cream, a spare set of clothes and a good book. Next, find room in your bag for your electronic devices, chargers, your important medications and perhaps a cozy neck pillow as well. Lastly, be sure to bring your passport, travel papers and some money.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Pointed or sharp objects, like your beloved Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and matches, are also banned.
What to wear on a flight:
- Your priority is to feel as comfortable as possible. Opt for slip-on footwear, dress in loose, natural fibers and remember to take a jacket in case you get cold in the cabin.
- Most of us have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of inactivity. To lessen your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression tights or socks and do gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat.
