We've pulled together all the info you need to make your flight as stress-free as possible. Follow our top tips and you'll be speeding through airport security and discovering Iligan in no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Firstly, and most importantly, put in your passport, official ID, wallet and daily medications. Next, you'll want some extra in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy book and a laptop filled with your favourite shows are always good options. If you intend to catch more than just forty winks, a neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, make room for a few toiletry items so you'll arrive looking fresh and ready to go.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of banned items can differ between air carriers, the general rule to follow is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like box cutters, razor blades, fuel and fireworks. Sports equipment like hockey sticks, and objects that could injure passengers, such as pepper spray and firearms, are also banned from the cabin.
What to wear on a flight:
- The aisles of a plane aren't the place for a fashion parade. Wear layers and pick shoes that are flat, roomy and easy to take on and off.
- Caused by sustained periods of immobility, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers on long-haul flights. Reduce the risks by drinking water, keeping your feet and legs moving and wearing compression tights or socks.
