Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Ma Wan could be as easy as pie or it could drag on forever. We've put together some useful hints that will help you start your next big adventure on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The trick to having a hassle-free flight experience is to pack in advance. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, boarding pass, cash and important medications. Next, take on board items that'll help pass the time, like some electronic devices or a good book. It's also a wise idea to pack your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones. Last but not least, don't forget to pop in toiletry items like a toothbrush, lip balm and a fresh set of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated. Sharp objects, like your beloved pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, flares and gasoline, are also prohibited.
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort should be your main priority when choosing what to wear on board. Loose clothing is a smart option, as are flat, slightly roomy shoes.
- Most travellers are aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of inactivity. To lessen your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression tights or socks and keep your legs and feet moving.
