If you're poorly prepared, airports and flying can be tough. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these helpful hints for a stress-free start to your getaway in Khorogochi. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- A plane trip can be a stress-free experience if you pack the right gear. Firstly, you'll want a few toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare change of clothes and something to read. Secondly, find a spot in your hand luggage for your electronic devices, chargers, any vital medications and perhaps a blow-up neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, don't forget to take your passport, travel papers and your bank cards.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Sharp or pointed objects, like your beloved Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, flares and fuels, are also prohibited.
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort should be your highest priority when deciding what to wear on your flight. Loose clothing is a wise option, as are enclosed shoes like sneakers.
- It's likely you've heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To lessen your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression tights or socks and keep your feet and legs moving.
