No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you've prepared well enough. We've put together a list of handy tips that will help get your Binga holiday started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The trick to having an amazing flight experience is to plan ahead. Start with the essentials: passport, travel documents, cash and vital medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help pass the time, like some electronic devices or a few magazines. It's also a wise idea to pack your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of headphones. And of course, be sure to pop in toiletries like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a clean set of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Make sure you don't have a sharp object lurking in one of the compartments of your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable goods, such as fuel and fireworks, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3null4 ounces (100 milliliters).
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort really should be your number one priority when deciding what to wear on board. Consider your footwear choice with care too, as swelling of the feet and ankles are quite common. Roomy, closed-toed shoes are always a good idea.
- Most travellers have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. There are many ways to lessen your risk. Don a pair of compression socks or tights, drink lots of water often and remember to keep your legs and feet moving. Wander around the cabin or try out some simple stretches in your seat.
