Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you're well prepared. We've compiled a list of essential travel tips that will get your Kampung Telaga Bata vacation started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The trick to having a worry-free flight experience is to pack ahead. So, let's start with the basics: passport, travel documents, cash and medications. Next, take on board items that'll help while away those hours, like some electronic devices or a thrilling book. It's also wise to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. Last but not least, don't forget to pop in toiletry items like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a fresh change of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Sharp or pointed objects, like your beloved Swiss Army knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, flares and fuels, are also prohibited.
What to wear on a flight:
- The main aim is to be as comfortable as possible. Layer yourself up in breathable clothing and don't forget to pack a pullover in case it gets cold in the cabin. Pick a pair of flat, well-fitting shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell a little during the flight. Leave the high heels and hiking boots in your main luggage.
- The serious condition called deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to poor circulation and inactivity. Walking around the cabin and doing regular foot and leg exercises while seated helps to prevent this happening. Wearing a quality pair of compression socks or tights also helps reduce your risk.
