If you're not prepared, travelling can be a real challenge. But there's no need to worry. Follow these handy tips and enjoy a worry-free start to your holiday in Modimolle. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Travelling on a plane can be a stress-free experience if you pack the right stuff. First things first, you'll need basic toiletries, such as lip balm and hand cream, a fresh change of clothes and a few magazines. Next, find room in your hand luggage for your mobile phone, a charger, medications and maybe a blow-up neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, remember to take your passport, travel documents and some money.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Check carefully that you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) hiding in one of the zippers of your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive substances, such as aerosol cans and fuel, 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 aircraft aren't the place for a fashion parade. Wear layers and pick shoes that are flat, enclosed and easy to remove.
- The result of prolonged periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers during long-haul flights. Lower your risks by drinking water, keeping your legs and ankles moving and wearing compression socks or tights.
