Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Kaura could be completely stress-free or it could go on forever. We've put together some handy tips that will help you start your next big adventure on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The trick to having a worry-free travel experience is to pack ahead. First up, the essentials: passport, official ID, bank cards and vital medications. Next, take on board items that'll help pass the time, like some electronic gadgets or a magazine. You'll also want to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones. Last but not least, be sure to squeeze in toiletry items like a toothbrush, deodorant and a clean set of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp or pointed objects, like your pocket knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, bleaching agents and fuels, are also restricted.
What to wear on a flight:
- The best way to ensure a comfortable flight is as simple as the clothes you wear. Prepare yourself for varying temperatures by layering up. That way you'll stay nice and warm if the cabin begins to cool down. Shoes like sandals and heels are best left in your suitcase. Instead, go for flat, closed-toed footwear like slip-ons. Your feet will thank you later.
- Most of us have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of sitting. There's lots you can do to minimize your risk. Wear a quality pair of compression socks or tights, stay hydrated and move your legs and feet. Walk around the cabin when possible or try out some exercises in your seat.
