Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you've prepared well enough. We've made a list of handy tips and tricks that will get your Faisalabad holiday started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Air travel can be a pleasure if you bring the right gear. First things first, you'll need basic toiletries, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare change of clothes and a good book. Secondly, find a spot in your bag for your phone and charger, your important medications and maybe a neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to bring your passport, travel documents and some money.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Double-check that you don't have a pocket knife hiding in your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive goods, such as fuel and matches, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).
What to wear on a flight:
- You'll want to choose comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes by dressing in layers, and pick easy-to-remove footwear like sneakers.
- It's likely you've heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. To minimize your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression socks and do gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat.
