Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you prepare well enough. Check out these handy travel tips that will help get your Beberibe holiday started on the right 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 keep you occupied, like your laptop or a good read. It's also a wise idea to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Last but not least, don't forget to chuck in toiletries like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a fresh change of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) won't be allowed on. Sharp or pointed objects, like your trusty pocket knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as spray paint, flares and strong acids, are also prohibited.
What to wear on a flight:
- Your main priority is to feel as comfortable as you can. Opt for a pair of slip-on shoes, dress in loose, natural fibers and remember to take a pullover in case it gets cold in the cabin.
- Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Make a point of walking around the cabin or do some gentle exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.
