We've got the lowdown on how to make your flight as enjoyable as possible. Follow our insider tips and you'll be breezing through the airport and discovering Nakhon Pathom in next to no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The secret to having a pain-free travel experience is to pack ahead. Start with the essentials: passport, travel docs, cash and vital medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you entertained, like some electronic devices or a thrilling novel. It's also a wise idea to pack your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones. And of course, don't forget to toss in toiletries like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a fresh set of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Double-check that you don't have a Swiss Army knife hiding in your hand luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive products, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).
What to wear on a flight:
- You'll want to go for comfort over style. Prepare for changes in cabin temperature by wearing layers, and wear flat, closed-toe footwear like slip-ons.
- Caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers during long-distance flights. Lower your risks by staying hydrated, keeping your legs moving and wearing compression socks to help your circulation.
