Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Chakrata could be simple and straightforward or it could go on forever. We've compiled some handy hints that will help you start your next big adventure on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- It's simple — first, pack your passport, travel documents, wallet and medications. Next, you'll need some in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling book and a phone filled with your favourite movies are some terrific options. If you hope to catch more than just forty winks, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes so you'll hop off the plane looking fresh and raring to go.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Check carefully that you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) lurking in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive goods, like aerosols and matches, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).
What to wear on a flight:
- Go for comfort over style. Prepare for changes in temperature by donning layers, and pick flat, slightly roomy shoes like sneakers.
- Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Make a point of walking around the cabin or do some simple exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.
