If you're poorly prepared, air travel can be tough. But there's no need to hit the panic button just yet. Follow these useful tips and enjoy a stress-free start to your getaway in Shuili.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- First, pack your passport, travel docs, credit cards and medications. Next, you'll want some extra in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling book and a phone filled with your favourite shows are some wonderful options. If you intend to catch up on some sleep, a neck pillow and some noise-cancelling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, leave some space for a toothbrush and some deodorant to ensure you touchdown looking and feeling fresh.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo 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. Sharp or pointed objects, like your trusty pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, bleaching agents and fireworks, are also restricted.
What to wear on a flight:
- The best way to ensure a comfortable flight is as simple as the clothes you wear. Prepare for temperature changes by bringing layers. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin gets too cold. Shoes like sandals and heels are best left in your checked suitcase. Instead, go for flat, closed-toed footwear like slip-ons. Your feet will appreciate it.
- The serious condition by the name of DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a potential risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to poor circulation and inactivity. Doing leg and foot exercises while seated helps to prevent this happening. Wearing a good pair of compression socks can also help.
