We've rounded up all the info you need to make your flight a pleasant experience. Follow our tips and you'll be speeding through the airport and discovering Dan Sai in no time at all.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- First, pack in your passport, important documents, cash and medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy novel and a laptop crammed with your favourite shows are some great options. If you plan to catch a few z's, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, squeeze in a few toiletry items so you'll hop off the plane feeling fresh and raring to go.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3null4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Sharp or pointed objects, like your precious Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosols and fuels, are also banned.
What to wear on a flight:
- The goal here is to be as comfortable as you can. Layer up with loose, natural fibers and pack a sweater in case it gets cool in the cabin. Always opt for flat, slightly roomy shoes as your feet may swell a little during the flight. Leave the stilettos and hiking boots in your checked luggage.
- Most travellers are aware of DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of sitting. There are many ways to lower your risk. Wear a quality pair of compression socks, stay well hydrated and keep your legs and feet moving. Walk around the cabin when possible or perform some stretches in your seat.
