Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Voh could be completely stress-free or it could go on forever. We've pulled together some tips that will help you start your next great adventure on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- A plane ride can be a cruisy experience if you carry the right stuff. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a spare pair of socks and a good book. Secondly, leave space in your hand luggage for your laptop, a charger, any vital medications and perhaps a quality 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:
- Make sure you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) lurking in the bottom of your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable goods, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort should be the goal when choosing what to wear during your flight. Consider your footwear with care too, as swollen ankles and feet are a common occurrence. Shoes which are flat and slightly roomy are always a sensible way to go.
- The condition by the name of DVT (deep vein thrombosis) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It results from blood clots forming due to poor circulation and inactivity. Doing leg and foot exercises while seated helps to prevent this from occurring. Wearing a pair of compression socks is also recommended.
