Depending on where you’re coming from, your trip to Phon Phisai could be simple and straightforward or it could drag on forever. We’ve put together some handy hints that will help you start your next big adventure on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- First things first, pack your passport, travel documents, wallet and medications. Next, you’ll need some entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling novel and a tablet filled with your favourite shows are good options. If you hope to catch forty winks, a neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, find room for a few toiletry items so you’ll arrive at your destination looking fresh and ready to go.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3null4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Sharp objects, like your Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, bleaching agents and strong acids, are also prohibited.
What to wear on a flight:
- The aisles of an aircraft are not the best place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfy clothing and bring a sweater as it can get quite cool inside the cabin during longer flights. Flat, enclosed shoes are always a good choice too.
- Unfortunately, a risk of long flights is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity. To prevent this from happening, take every opportunity to stretch your legs and walk around the cabin. Compression tights and socks are another great idea to help minimize this risk.
