Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Sulthan Bathery could be as easy as pie or it could drag on forever. Here are some tips that will help you start your next great adventure on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- A plane ride can be a great experience if you carry the right stuff. First things first, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a fresh set of clothes and a few magazines. Next, leave space in your bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, any daily medications and perhaps a proper neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, remember to take your passport, travel papers and some money.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of restricted items can differ between airlines, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes knives, scissors, spray paint and flares. Sports equipment like ski poles, and items that could harm other people, such as firearms and swords, are also banned from the cabin.
What to wear on a flight:
- The aisles of a plane are no place for a fashion parade. Dress in comfortable layers and pick shoes that are flat, roomy and easy to pull on and off.
- Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It results from blood clotting due to inactivity and poor circulation, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks or tights.
