If you're not prepared, airports and flying can be a real challenge. But there's no need to worry. Follow these tips and tricks for a stress-free start to your holiday in Gingoog. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Travelling on a plane can be a comfortable experience if you carry the right gear. First of all you'll need toiletry items, such as toothpaste, a toothbrush and some deodorant, a fresh set of clothes and a good book. Secondly, make room in your hand luggage for your electronic devices, chargers, any daily medications and perhaps a cosy neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, don't forget to bring your passport, travel docs and some cash.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo 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 security. Sharp objects, like your trusty Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, chemicals agents and gasoline, are also banned.
What to wear on a flight:
- The aisles of an aircraft are no place for a fashion parade. Layer your clothing and choose shoes that are closed-toe, flat and easy to take on and off.
- Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clots forming due to poor circulation and inactivity, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression tights or socks.
