We've got the lowdown on how to make your flight as enjoyable as possible. Follow our top tips and you'll be cruising through airport security and having a ball in Malad City in no time at all. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Traveling on a plane can be a comfortable experience if you pack the right things. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletries, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare pair of socks and a magazine or two. Secondly, find room in your bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, medications and maybe a neck pillow as well. Lastly, remember to bring your passport, travel docs and some cash.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Pointed or sharp objects, like your trusty Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, flares and gasoline, are also restricted.
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort should be your top priority when choosing what to wear on board. Loose clothing is a wise choice, as are enclosed shoes like sneakers.
- The result of lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers on long-distance flights. Lower your risks by staying hydrated, keeping your feet and legs moving and wearing compression socks to help improve your circulation.
