Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Kolyma Krai could be simple and straightforward or it could drag on forever. Here are some handy tips that will help you start your unforgettable escape on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- It's simple — first, pack your passport, travel documents, cash and medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling book and a phone crammed with your favorite movies are some wonderful options. If you plan to take a quick snooze, a neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, find room for a few toiletry items so you'll step off the plane feeling fresh and raring to go.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Pointed or sharp objects, like your beloved pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosols and matches, are also prohibited.
What to wear on a flight:
- Your top priority is to feel as comfortable as possible. Choose flat, closed-toe shoes, dress in loose, natural-fiber clothing and don't forget to take a sweater in case you get chilly in the cabin.
- Most travelers have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To lessen your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression socks and keep your legs and feet moving.
