Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you're well prepared. Take a peek at these handy tips that will help get your Sundarban vacation started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Firstly, and most importantly, pack in your passport, travel docs, credit cards and medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling novel and a laptop crammed with your favorite shows are some terrific options. If you plan to catch more than just forty winks, a comfy neck pillow and some noise-canceling headphones will also be useful. Finally, find room for a few toiletry items so you'll hop off the plane feeling fresh and ready to go.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Pointed or sharp objects, like your Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosols and matches, are also restricted.
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort should be your priority when choosing what to wear on your flight. Loose clothing is a sensible choice, as are flat, closed-toe shoes.
- Most of us have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To minimize your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression socks or tights and do gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat.
