Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Asau could be as easy as pie or it could go on forever. We've put together some useful hints that will help you start your next great adventure on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The secret to having a pain-free flight experience is to be prepared. Start with the essentials: passport, official ID, bank cards and vital medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help while away those hours, like some electronic gadgets or a thrilling book. You'll also want to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earphones. Finally, don't forget to toss in toiletry items like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a fresh change of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Make sure you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) hiding in one of the zippers of your carry-on luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable substances, such as fuel and matches, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).
What to wear on a flight:
- Go for comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes in the cabin by dressing in layers, and pick flat, slightly roomy footwear like slip-ons.
- Most of us have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of inactivity. To lessen your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression socks or tights and do gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat.
