We've rounded up all the info you need to make your journey a stress-free experience. Follow our tips and tricks and you'll be hightailing it through airport security and exploring Harsil in no time flat. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The trick to having a worry-free travel experience is to pack ahead. Start with the essentials: passport, travel documents, cash and important medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you occupied, like some electronic gadgets or a magazine. You'll also want to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. Last but not least, be sure to chuck in toiletry items like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a clean T-shirt.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Sharp objects, like your precious pocket knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, flares and fireworks, are also prohibited.
What to wear on a flight:
- The aisles of a plane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer your clothing and choose shoes that are roomy, flat and easy to remove.
- Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by extended periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to wander around the cabin or do some gentle exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.
