Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Al Khor could be simple and straightforward or it could go on forever. We've put together some useful tips that will help you start your next great adventure on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- It's simple — first, put in your passport, official ID, cash and vital medications. Next, you'll need some in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling novel and a laptop crammed with your favourite shows are good options. If you hope to catch up on some sleep, a neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some facial wipes to ensure you arrive at your destination looking fresh and ready to go.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of banned items differs between airlines, the general rule of thumb is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, knives, spray paint and fireworks. Sporting equipment like hockey sticks, and items that could harm passengers, such as guns and swords, won't be allowed on board either.
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort should be your number one priority when choosing what to wear on board. Loose clothing is a smart option, as are flat, slightly roomy shoes.
- Caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers during long flights. Reduce the risks by staying hydrated, keeping your legs moving and wearing compression socks or tights.
