- The secret to having a pain-free travel experience is to pack ahead. So, let's start with the basics: passport, travel docs, cash and any vital medications. Next, bring items that'll help pass the time, like some electronic devices or a few magazines. It's also a wise idea to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Last but not least, don't forget to toss in toiletries like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a fresh set of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of restricted items can differ between airlines, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, pocket knives, fireworks and fuel. Sports equipment like hockey sticks, and objects that could injure passengers, such as swords and batons, are also banned from the cabin.
What to wear on a flight:
- The narrow aisles of a plane are not the best place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfy clothing and remember to take a cardigan as it can get chilly in the cabin. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are always a good idea too.
- Most travellers are aware of DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of sitting. There are plenty of ways to reduce your risk. Wear a good-quality pair of compression socks or tights, drink plenty of water and keep your legs and feet moving. Walk around the cabin when possible or try out some exercises in your seat.
