No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you've prepared well enough. We've made a list of handy travel tips that will help get your Ko Mook holiday started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- First and foremost, pack in your passport, travel documents, cash and vital medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy novel and a tablet crammed with your favourite shows are good options. If you hope to take a short nap, a quality neck pillow and some noise-cancelling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, leave some space for a few toiletry items so you'll touchdown looking fresh and ready to go.
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 carry-on luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable goods, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3null4 ounces (100 milliliters).
What to wear on a flight:
- The main aim is to be as comfortable as you can. Layer up with loose, natural-fibre clothing and pack a jacket in case you get cold. Opt for flat, well-fitting shoes as your feet may swell a little during the journey. Leave the high heels and heavy boots in your checked baggage.
- The result of sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a condition that can affect some passengers during long-haul flights. The good news is there are ways to lower your risk of developing it. Stay well hydrated, get up and walk around the cabin as much as you can and wear compression socks or tights.
