We've pulled together all the info you need to make your flight an enjoyable experience. Follow our top tips and you'll be cruising through the airport and enjoying Matapouri in next to no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- First of all, put in your passport, travel documents, wallet and 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 movies are always good options. If you hope to take a quick nap, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones will also be useful. Finally, squeeze in a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes to ensure you hop off the plane feeling fresh and ready to go.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Double-check that you don't have sharp or pointed objects hiding in one of the compartments of your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable products, such as fuel and matches, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).
What to wear on a flight:
- Go for comfort over style. Prepare for changes in cabin temperature by layering up, and opt for flat, closed-toe footwear like slip-ons.
- Caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers on long-distance flights. Lower your risks by drinking water, keeping your lower limbs moving and wearing compression socks to help improve your circulation.
