Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you've planned ahead. We've compiled a list of handy tips and tricks that will get your Tuineje escape started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Air travel can be a stress-free experience if you take the right stuff. First of all you'll need toiletry items, such as toothpaste, a toothbrush and some deodorant, a clean pair of socks and a good book. Secondly, find room in your carry-on bag for your electronic devices, chargers, medications and perhaps a blow-up neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, don't forget to take your passport, travel docs and your credit cards.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Pointed or sharp objects, like a pocket knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosols and fuels, are also prohibited.
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort should be your top priority when choosing what to wear on your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a wise choice, as are roomy, closed-toe shoes.
- Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by extended periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to walk around the cabin or do some gentle exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.
