Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a seamless experience if you've planned ahead. Take a peek at these essential travel tips that will get your Kasawara vacation started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The trick to having a great flight experience is to pack ahead. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, travel documents, bank cards and important medications. Next, bring items that'll help pass the time, like some electronic gadgets or a juicy novel. It's also wise to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earphones. Last but not least, don't forget to squeeze in toiletry items like a toothbrush, lip balm and a clean T-shirt.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray 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. Sharp or pointed objects, like your trusty pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as spray paint, flares and fireworks, are also restricted.
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort should always be your prime concern when deciding what to wear during your flight. Consider your choice of footwear with care too, as swollen ankles and feet are quite common. Flat shoes which are slightly roomy are always a sensible way to go.
- It's likely you've heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of sitting. There's plenty you can do to lower your risk. Wear compression tights or socks, drink lots of water and keep your legs and feet moving. Walk around the cabin when possible or try out some exercises in your seat.
