No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you're well prepared. We've put together a list of handy hints that will get your Kampung Bukit Itik vacation started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Air travel can be a cruisy experience if you've got all the right things. First things first, you'll need basic toiletries, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a fresh change of clothes and a few magazines. Secondly, find a spot in your hand luggage for your electronic gadgets, chargers, your important medications and perhaps a neck pillow too. Lastly, remember to bring your passport, travel documents and your bank cards.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Make sure you don't have a pocket knife lurking in your carry-on luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive goods, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).
What to wear on a flight:
- Your aim here is to feel as comfortable as you can. Layer yourself up in natural-fiber clothing and remember to pack a pullover in case it gets cool in the cabin. Pick a pair of flat, slightly roomy shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell during the flight. Leave the high heels and chunky boots in your checked baggage.
- Unfortunately, a risk of flying long distances is developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged inactivity. To prevent this from happening, make the most of every opportunity to wander around the cabin. Compression tights and socks are another great idea to help minimize this risk.
