No matter where you’re coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you’ve prepared well. We’ve compiled a list of handy travel tips that will get your Rach Gia holiday started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- First things first, put in your passport, official ID, bank cards and medications. Next, you’ll want some entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling novel and a phone filled with your favourite movies are good options. If you intend to take a quick nap, a neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some facial wipes so you’ll touchdown feeling fresh as a daisy.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Leave all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3null4 ounces (100 milliliters) won’t be allowed on. Pointed or sharp objects, like your treasured pocket knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosols and matches, are also banned.
What to wear on a flight:
- The best way to ensure a comfortable flight is as simple as your choice of clothes. Prepare yourself for varying temperatures by layering up. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin gets too cold. Shoes like sandals and heels are best left in your suitcase. Instead, opt for flat, closed-toed footwear like sneakers. Your feet will thank you later.
- Most travellers have heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. There are plenty of ways to lower your risk. Wear compression socks, stay hydrated and get your legs and feet moving. Do a few laps of the cabin or try out some simple stretches in your seat.
