Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a seamless experience if you're prepared. We've compiled a list of handy travel tips that will help get your Tingwon Island escape started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- A plane trip can be a great experience if you pack the right gear. First of all you'll need basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a spare pair of socks and a good novel. Secondly, find room in your hand luggage for your electronic devices, chargers, any daily medications and maybe a cozy neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget to take your passport, travel papers and some money.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Pointed or sharp objects, like your treasured Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, chemicals agents and fuels, are also restricted.
What to wear on a flight:
- The answer to a comfortable flight can be as simple as your choice in clothes. Prepare for temperature changes by layering up. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin gets too cold. Shoes like stilettos, flip flops and lace-up boots are best left in your checked suitcase. Instead, opt for flat, closed-toed footwear like sneakers. Your feet will appreciate it.
- It's likely you've heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of sitting. There are numerous ways to lower your risk. Wear compression socks, drink lots of water often and keep your legs and feet moving. Walk the aisles of the cabin or try out some exercises in your seat.
