No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you've prepared well. We've compiled a list of essential travel tips that will get your Yam vacation started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- First and foremost, pack in your passport, official ID, credit cards and vital medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling book and a tablet filled with your favorite movies are some terrific options. If you intend to catch up on some sleep, a quality neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, leave some space for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes so you'll arrive at your destination feeling fresh and raring to go.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Check carefully that you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) hiding in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive products, such as fuel 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:
- Choose comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes in the cabin by donning layers, and pick closed-toe, flat shoes like slip-ons.
- Caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers on long-haul flights. Lower your risks by staying hydrated, keeping your legs moving and wearing compression tights or socks.
