Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Melaya could be completely stress-free or it could drag on forever. We've pulled together some useful travel tips that will help you start your next big adventure on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- A plane trip can be a comfortable experience if you take the right things. First of all you'll need toiletry items, such as toothpaste, a toothbrush and some deodorant, a clean set of clothes and something to read. Next, find room in your hand luggage for your mobile phone, a charger, your medications and perhaps a neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, remember to bring your passport, travel papers and some cash.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Make sure you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) lurking in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable goods, such as fuel and matches, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3null4 ounces (100 milliliters).
What to wear on a flight:
- The long, narrow aisles of your aircraft are not the best place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfy clothing and take a cardigan as it tends to get cool inside the cabin during long-haul flights. Slightly roomy, flat shoes are also a good choice.
- A serious condition called deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clots forming due to poor circulation. Doing leg and foot exercises in your seat helps to prevent this occurring. Wearing a good pair of compression socks or tights can also help.
