Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Badagry could be as easy as pie or it could go on forever. We've compiled some useful tips that will help you start your unforgettable escape on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Travelling on a plane can be a great experience if you take the right things. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and some deodorant, a clean pair of socks and a good book. Secondly, find room in your bag for your electronic devices, chargers, your medications and maybe a comfy neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, remember to bring your passport, travel papers and your bank cards.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of restricted items differs between air carriers, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like box cutters, razor blades, spray paint and flares. Sporting equipment like bows and arrows, and items that could injure passengers, such as pepper spray and guns, can't come on board with you either.
What to wear on a flight:
- Your priority is to feel as comfortable as possible. Opt for slip-on footwear, dress in loose, natural-fibre clothing and don't forget to take a sweater in case you get chilly in the cabin.
- You've probably heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of sitting. To reduce your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression tights or socks and move your lower limbs often.
