No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you prepare well enough. Check out these handy travel tips that will get your Hpa-An holiday started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Flying can be easy if you carry the right stuff. First things first, you'll need basic toiletries, such as toothpaste, a toothbrush and some deodorant, a fresh change of clothes and a good novel. Next, find a spot in your hand luggage for your mobile phone, a charger, your important medications and maybe a quality neck pillow too. Lastly, be sure to take your passport, travel papers and some money.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Double-check that you don't have a sharp object lurking in the bottom of your hand luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive substances, like aerosols and matches, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).
What to wear on a flight:
- Choose comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes by wearing layers, and pick closed-toe, flat shoes like sneakers.
- The result of prolonged periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers on long-haul flights. Lower your risks by staying hydrated, keeping your legs moving and wearing compression socks to help your circulation.
