Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you've planned ahead. Take a peek at these handy tips and tricks that will help get your Medhufushi escape started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Firstly, and most importantly, pack in your passport, official ID, credit cards and medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling novel and a tablet filled with your favourite movies are some great options. If you plan to catch a few z's, a comfy neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, squeeze in a toothbrush and some facial wipes so you'll arrive looking fresh and ready to go.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Double-check that you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) hiding in one of the compartments of your carry-on luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive goods, like aerosols and matches, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort should be your number one priority when choosing what to wear on your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a smart choice, as are roomy, closed-toe shoes.
- It's likely you've heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of sitting. To lower your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression tights or socks and keep your legs and feet moving.
