We've pulled together all the info you need to make your flight as stress-free as possible. Follow our tips and you'll be cruising through the airport and exploring Daniel in no time flat. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The trick to having a pain-free travel experience is to pack ahead. So, let's start with the basics: passport, travel documents, bank cards and important medications. Next, bring items that'll help keep you occupied, like your laptop or a juicy novel. It's also a wise idea to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of headphones. And of course, be sure to toss in toiletries like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a fresh change of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Leave all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp or pointed objects, like a Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as spray paint, flares and fuels, are also restricted.
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort should be your top priority when deciding what to wear during your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a wise option, as are flat, slip-on shoes.
- You're probably aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged 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.
