Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a seamless experience if you've prepared well enough. Follow these essential travel tips that will help get your Satsumasendai escape started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Travelling on a plane can be a great experience if you take the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want some basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a fresh set of clothes and a few magazines. Next, make room in your carry-on bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, any vital medications and maybe a cosy neck pillow as well. Lastly, remember to bring your passport, travel docs and some cash.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3null4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Sharp or pointed objects, like your pocket knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, flares and poisons, are also prohibited.
What to wear on a flight:
- The long, narrow aisles of your plane are not the best place for a fashion parade. Layer yourself up with comfortable clothes and remember to take a sweater as it can get chilly inside the cabin on long-haul flights. Closed-toed, flat shoes are also a good choice.
- Unfortunately, a risk of flying long-haul is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity. To avoid this, make the most of every opportunity to walk around and give your legs a stretch. Compression socks and tights are another great idea to help minimize this risk.
