Depending on where you’re coming from, your trip to Chimanimani could be completely stress-free or it could drag on forever. Here are some useful tips that will help you start your next great adventure on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- It’s easy — first, pack in your passport, travel docs, wallet and daily medications. Next, you’ll need some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling novel and a tablet crammed with your favorite movies are always good options. If you hope to catch up on some sleep, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, squeeze in a toothbrush and some facial wipes to ensure you arrive feeling fresh and ready to go.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Leave all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Sharp or pointed objects, like your precious Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, chemicals agents and fuels, are also restricted.
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort should always be your prime concern when deciding what to wear on your flight. Consider your footwear carefully too, as swollen feet can be a side effect of flying. Flat shoes which are slightly roomy are always a smart option.
- Most travelers have heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of sitting. There’s plenty you can do to lower your risk. Wear a pair of compression tights or socks, drink lots of water and get your legs and feet moving. Walk around the cabin when possible or perform some stretches in your seat.
