Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a seamless experience if you prepare well enough. Take a peek at these top travel tips that will help get your Denpasar holiday started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- A plane ride can be a pleasure if you pack the right gear. Firstly, you'll need toiletry items, such as lip balm and hand cream, a fresh change of clothes and something to read. Secondly, find a spot in your bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, any daily medications and maybe a neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, don't forget to bring your passport, travel documents and your credit cards.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Check carefully that you don't have a sharp object hiding in one of the compartments of your hand luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable products, like aerosols and matches, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).
What to wear on a flight:
- The aisles of an airplane aren't the place for a fashion parade. Don comfortable layers and pick shoes that are closed-toe, flat and easy to slip on and off.
- Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clotting due to poor circulation and inactivity, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression tights or socks.
