Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Ban Phaeng could be simple and straightforward or it could go on forever. We've rounded up some useful travel tips that will help you start your next big adventure on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The trick to having an amazing travel experience is to pack in advance. First up, the essentials: passport, travel documents, bank cards and medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help pass the time, like some electronic devices or a magazine. It's also a wise idea to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Finally, be sure to squeeze in toiletry items like a toothbrush, deodorant and a clean set of clothes.
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 gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated by security. Sharp or pointed objects, like your precious Swiss Army knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, flares and fireworks, are also banned.
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort should be your highest priority when choosing what to wear during your flight. Loose clothing is a smart choice, as are flat, slightly roomy shoes.
- Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to poor circulation, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks.
