Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Maguhdhuvaa could be no sweat at all or it could drag on forever. We've pulled together some handy travel tips that will help you start your next great escape on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The secret to having a hassle-free travel experience is to be prepared. Start with the essentials: passport, travel documents, credit cards and daily medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you entertained, like your laptop or a thrilling novel. It's also wise to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Last but not least, don't forget to pop in toiletries like a toothbrush, deodorant and a clean T-shirt.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Make sure you don't have a Swiss Army knife lurking in the bottom of your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable substances, like aerosols and matches, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3null4 ounces (100 milliliters).
What to wear on a flight:
- The main aim is to feel as comfortable as you can. Layer yourself up in natural fibers and remember to pack a jacket in case it gets chilly in the cabin. Always go with roomy, flat shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell during the flight. Leave the high heels and heavy hiking boots in your checked luggage.
- Most of us have heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by reduced mobility or inactivity. There are plenty of ways to mitigate your risk. Wear compression socks, stay well hydrated and remember to keep your legs and feet moving. Wander up and down the aisles of the cabin or perform some stretches in your seat.
