Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Gweru could be as easy as pie or it could drag on forever. We've pulled together some useful tips that will help you start your next great escape on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- A plane trip can be a stress-free experience if you've got all the right stuff. First things first, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a fresh set of clothes and a good book. Secondly, find room in your bag for your phone and charger, any medications and maybe a blow-up neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget to bring your passport, travel documents and some money.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of prohibited items can differ between airlines, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like knives, scissors, spray paint and flares. Sporting equipment like ski poles, and items that could harm other people, such as guns and swords, won't be allowed on board either.
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort should be your main concern when deciding what to wear during your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a sensible choice, as are flat, enclosed shoes.
- Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to walk around the cabin or do some simple exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.
