We've pulled together all the info you need to make your flight a pleasant experience. Follow our tips and tricks and you'll be breezing through airport security and having a ball in Isesaki in next to no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The trick to having an amazing travel experience is to plan ahead. First up, the essentials: passport, travel docs, credit cards and vital medications. Next, bring items that'll help keep you busy, like your laptop or a juicy novel. It's also wise to pack your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones. Finally, don't forget to chuck in toiletries like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a fresh set of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Double-check that you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) lurking in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable substances, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).
What to wear on a flight:
- The aisles of an airplane are no place for a fashion parade. Don comfortable layers and opt for shoes that are flat, roomy and easy to take on and off.
- Caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers during long-haul flights. Reduce the risks by drinking water, keeping your legs and feet moving and wearing compression socks to help improve your circulation.
