Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Kampung Raja could be a piece of cake or it could go on forever. We've compiled some handy tips that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Flying can be a pleasure if you've got all the right stuff. First of all you'll need toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and some deodorant, a fresh change of clothes and a good read. Secondly, make room in your carry-on bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, any vital medications and perhaps a proper neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, be sure to bring your passport, travel documents and some cash.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of restricted items differs between airlines, the general guide to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, drills, spray paint and flares. Sports equipment like ski poles, and items that could injure passengers, such as pepper spray and guns, can't come on board with you either.
What to wear on a flight:
- Your aim is to feel as comfortable as possible. Go for easy-to-remove footwear, dress in loose, natural-fibre clothing and remember to take a pullover in case you get chilly in the cabin.
- Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by extended periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to wander around the cabin or do some simple exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.
