No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you've prepared well. Check out these top travel tips that will help get your Keb escape started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The secret to having a great travel experience is to plan ahead. Start with the essentials: passport, travel docs, bank cards and medications. Next, take on board items that'll help pass the time, like some electronic gadgets or a good read. It's also a wise idea to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earphones. Last but not least, be sure to chuck in toiletries like a toothbrush, deodorant and a spare set of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of prohibited items can differ between airlines, the general rule to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, pocket knives, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sporting equipment like bows and arrows, and objects that could injure passengers, such as firearms and ammunition, aren't allowed in the cabin either.
What to wear on a flight:
- Your priority is to be as comfortable as you can. Opt for slip-on footwear, dress in loose, natural fibers and remember to bring a sweater in case it gets cold in the cabin.
- Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clots forming due to poor circulation, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks.
