Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Buganda could be a piece of cake or it could go on forever. We've pulled together some handy hints that will help you start your unforgettable escape on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- A plane trip can be a stress-free experience if you've got all the right stuff. First things first, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a spare change of clothes and a good read. Next, find a spot in your hand luggage for your electronic gadgets, chargers, your important medications and perhaps a cosy neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to bring your passport, travel papers and your credit cards.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Double-check that you don't have sharp or pointed objects lurking in one of the zippers of your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable goods, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).
What to wear on a flight:
- Your aim is to be as comfortable as you can. Choose shoes that are easy to slip on and off, dress in loose, natural fibers and don't forget to take a sweater in case it gets cold in the cabin.
- Caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers on long-haul flights. Reduce the risks by drinking water, keeping your legs moving and wearing compression socks to help improve your circulation.
