If you're poorly prepared, travelling can be testing. But there's no need to panic. Follow these useful tips and enjoy a trouble-free start to your holiday in Auki. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The secret to having a stress-free travel experience is to pack ahead. Start with the essentials: passport, boarding pass, bank cards and medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you entertained, like your laptop or a thrilling book. It's also a wise idea to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of earphones. Finally, don't forget to chuck in toiletries like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a clean T-shirt.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Double-check that you don't have a Swiss Army knife hiding in one of the compartments of your carry-on luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive products, such as fuel and fireworks, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).
What to wear on a flight:
- The aisles of an aircraft are no place for a fashion parade. Don comfortable layers and choose shoes that are flat, enclosed and easy to remove.
- Caused by sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers on long-haul flights. Lower your risks by drinking water, keeping your legs moving and wearing compression socks to help improve your circulation.
