Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Buckleys Village could be as easy as pie or it could drag on forever. We've rounded up some handy tips that will help you start your next great adventure on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Firstly, and most importantly, pack in your passport, official ID, credit cards and daily medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A juicy book and a phone filled with your favourite movies are good options. If you plan to catch up on some sleep, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also be useful. Finally, leave space for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes to ensure you touchdown looking fresh and raring to go.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated by security. Sharp or pointed objects, like your pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosols and matches, are also banned.
What to wear on a flight:
- Choose comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes by dressing in layers, and pick flat, easy-to-remove footwear like sneakers.
- Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Walk around the cabin and give your legs a stretch or do some simple exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.
