Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Mae Ku could be a piece of cake or it could drag on forever. We've compiled some handy tips that will help you start your next great escape on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Flying can be a great experience if you pack the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want some basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a clean pair of socks and something to read. Secondly, make room in your hand luggage for your electronic gadgets, chargers, your important medications and maybe a cozy neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, don't forget to take your passport, travel docs and some cash.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Double-check that you don't have a pocket knife hiding in the bottom of your carry-on luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive goods, like aerosols and matches, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort should be your main concern when choosing what to wear on your flight. Loose clothing is a wise choice, as are flat, slip-on shoes.
- Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to wander around the cabin or do some simple exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.
