Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you're well prepared. Take a peek at these top travel tips that will help get your Erdenet escape started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- First and foremost, pack in your passport, travel docs, cash and medications. Next, you'll need some in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A juicy book and a tablet filled with your favourite shows are some fantastic options. If you intend to catch forty winks, a neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some deodorant so you'll touchdown feeling fresh and ready to go.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) won't be allowed on. Sharp objects, like your trusty pocket knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, bleaching agents and fuels, are also restricted.
What to wear on a flight:
- Go for comfort over style. Prepare for changes in cabin temperature by donning layers, and wear flat, slightly roomy footwear like slip-ons.
- You've probably heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of inactivity. To reduce your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression socks or tights and move your legs and feet often.
