No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you've prepared well. Follow these top travel tips that will get your Khaem Son holiday started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The secret to having an amazing flight experience is to pack ahead. Start with the essentials: passport, travel documents, bank cards and any vital medications. Next, bring items that'll help pass the time, like your laptop or a good read. It's also a wise idea to pack your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of earphones. And of course, don't forget to pop in toiletries like a toothbrush, lip balm and a spare change of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) won't be allowed on. Sharp objects, like your treasured Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, flares and poisons, are also not allowed.
What to wear on a flight:
- Your main aim is to be as comfortable as possible. Choose shoes that are easy to pull on and off, dress in loose, breathable clothing and don't forget to bring a jacket in case you get cold in the cabin.
- The result of lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers on long-haul flights. Lower your risks by staying hydrated, keeping your legs moving and wearing compression socks to help improve your circulation.
