Depending on where you’re coming from, your trip to Qimei could be completely stress-free or it could drag on forever. Here are some useful travel tips that will help you start your next great escape on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Flying can be a pleasure if you’ve got all the right gear. Firstly, you’ll want a few basic toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare set of clothes and a good read. Secondly, make room in your hand luggage for your phone, tablet and chargers, your important medications and perhaps a neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, be sure to take your passport, travel documents and some money.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Put all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3null4 ounces (100 milliliters) won’t be allowed on. Pointed or sharp objects, like your Swiss Army knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and fireworks, are also prohibited.
What to wear on a flight:
- The key to a comfortable flight can be as simple as your choice of clothing. Prepare for changes in temperature by bringing layers. That way you’ll stay nice and warm if the cabin gets too cold. Shoes like high heels and sandals are best left in your suitcase. Even though they may be your favourites, opt for flat, closed-toed footwear like sneakers. Your feet will appreciate it.
- Caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers during long flights. But the good news is there are ways to significantly reduce your risk of developing it. Stay well hydrated, wander through the cabin as much as you can and wear compression tights or socks.
