We've pulled together all the info you need to make your journey as stress-free as possible. Follow our tips and tricks and you'll be breezing through airport security and seeing the best of Patnitop before you know it. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Flying can be a great experience if you take the right gear. Firstly, you'll want a few toiletry items, such as lip balm and hand cream, a spare set of clothes and a magazine or two. Next, find a spot in your hand luggage for your electronic gadgets, chargers, any daily medications and maybe a cozy neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget to bring your passport, travel documents and some cash.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Sharp or pointed objects, like your precious Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and gasoline, are also prohibited.
What to wear on a flight:
- You'll want to go for comfort over style. Prepare for changes in cabin temperature by dressing in layers, and wear flat, easy-to-remove footwear like sneakers.
- The result of sustained periods of immobility, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers during long-distance flights. Lower your risks by drinking water, keeping your legs moving and wearing compression socks or tights.
