Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you prepare well enough. We've made a list of handy hints that will help get your Sakleshpur holiday started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- A plane trip can be a comfortable experience if you take the right gear. Firstly, you'll want a few basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a spare pair of socks and a magazine or two. Next, make room in your bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, medications and perhaps a comfy neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to bring your passport, travel docs and your credit cards.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of restricted items differs between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, blades, spray paint and fireworks. Sports equipment like ice skates, and objects that could harm passengers, such as swords and guns, won't be allowed on board either.
What to wear on a flight:
- The aisles of an airplane are no place for a fashion parade. Wear layers and opt for shoes that are enclosed, flat and easy to pull on and off.
- Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to wander around the cabin or do some simple exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.
