If you're not prepared, travelling can be a real challenge. But there's no need to worry. Follow these useful tips and enjoy a worry-free start to your holiday in Pwani Mchangani.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The secret to having a worry-free flight experience is to pack in advance. So, let's start with the basics: passport, official ID, bank cards and vital medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you occupied, like your laptop or a thrilling novel. You'll also want to pack your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. And of course, be sure to toss in toiletries like a toothbrush, deodorant and a clean set of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of prohibited items can differ between air carriers, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes tools, metal cutlery, spray paint and flares. Sports equipment like golf clubs, and objects that could harm passengers, such as swords and guns, can't come on board with you either.
What to wear on a flight:
- The long, narrow aisles of your plane are no fashion runway. Layer up with comfy clothing and bring a sweater as it tends to get cool in the cabin. Enclosed, flat shoes are always a good choice too.
- You've probably heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by reduced mobility or inactivity. There's lots you can do to minimize your risk. Don a pair of compression socks or tights, drink plenty of water and get your legs and feet moving. Do a few laps of the cabin or perform some simple exercises in your seat.
