No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you've prepared well. Follow these handy tips that will get your Kawagoe holiday started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- First and foremost, pack in your passport, travel docs, cash and daily medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling book and a phone filled with your favourite shows are good options. If you intend to take a short snooze, a comfy neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, leave some space for a toothbrush and some facial wipes so you'll arrive feeling fresh as a daisy.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Leave all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3null4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Pointed or sharp objects, like your beloved pocket knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and strong acids, are also not allowed.
What to wear on a flight:
- The long, narrow aisles of your aircraft are not the best place for a fashion parade. Wear comfortable clothes and pack a cardigan as it tends to get cool in the cabin on long-haul flights. Enclosed, flat shoes are also a wise idea.
- Most of us have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by reduced mobility or inactivity. There are plenty of ways to reduce your risk. Wear compression socks, stay hydrated and get your legs and feet moving. Do a few laps of the cabin or try out some simple stretches in your seat.
