If you're poorly prepared, travelling can be overwhelming. But there's no need to worry. Follow these handy tips for a trouble-free start to your time in Duy Xuyen.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- It's simple — first, put in your passport, travel documents, wallet and daily medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to while away the hours. A thrilling novel and a phone crammed with your favourite shows are some fantastic options. If you intend to catch more than just forty winks, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also be useful. Finally, squeeze in a toothbrush and some facial wipes so you'll step off the plane feeling fresh and raring to go.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of restricted items can differ between airlines, the general rule to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, knives, fuel and fireworks. Sporting equipment like baseball bats, and items that could injure passengers, such as swords and batons, can't come on board with you either.
What to wear on a flight:
- The aisles of your plane are no place for a fashion parade. Wear comfortable clothes and remember to bring a sweater as the temperature can drop inside the cabin during long-haul flights. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are also a sensible choice.
- The condition known as DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to inactivity and poor circulation. Doing foot and leg exercises in your seat is a great way to prevent this developing. Wearing a pair of compression socks also helps reduce your risk.
