Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Bodh Gaya could be completely stress-free or it could drag on forever. Below are some useful tips that will help you start your next great escape on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- A plane trip can be a cruisy experience if you carry the right gear. First things first, you'll need basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a spare change of clothes and a good novel. Next, find a spot in your hand luggage for your electronic devices, chargers, any medications and perhaps a comfy neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, be sure to take your passport, travel papers and your credit cards.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3null4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Sharp or pointed objects, like a Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, flares and poisons, are also banned.
What to wear on a flight:
- The narrow aisles of an aircraft are not the best place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfortable clothing and take a cardigan as it tends to get cool in the cabin on long-haul flights. Enclosed, flat shoes are also a good choice.
- The result of sustained periods of immobility, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a serious condition that can affect passengers during long flights. But the good news is there are proven ways to lower your risk of developing it. Drink plenty of water, walk up and down the aisles wherever possible and wear compression tights or socks.
