Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Karatun could be completely painless or it could go on forever. We've put together some tips that will help you start your next great escape on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The secret to having an amazing travel experience is to pack in advance. Start with the essentials: passport, travel docs, bank cards and important medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you occupied, like your laptop or a magazine. It's also smart to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earphones. And of course, don't forget to squeeze in toiletry items like a toothbrush, lip balm and a spare set of clothes.
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 the bottom of your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive products, like aerosols and matches, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3null4 ounces (100 milliliters).
What to wear on a flight:
- The long, narrow aisles of a plane are not the place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfortable clothing and remember to take a sweater as the temperature can drop inside the cabin during long-haul flights. Enclosed, flat shoes are always a good choice too.
- It's likely you've heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of inactivity. There's plenty you can do to reduce your risk. Wear a pair of compression socks or tights, drink lots of water and keep your legs and feet moving. Do a few laps of the cabin or perform some simple exercises in your seat.
