If you're not prepared, air travel can be daunting. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these handy hints for a worry-free start to your holiday in Tejakula.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Travelling on a plane can be easy if you bring the right things. Firstly, you'll want a few basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a spare change of clothes and a few magazines. Secondly, leave space in your hand luggage for your mobile phone, a charger, any daily medications and maybe a quality neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, don't forget to take your passport, travel papers and your bank cards.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Squeeze 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) will be confiscated. Sharp objects, like your treasured pocket knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as spray paint, flares and poisons, are also banned.
What to wear on a flight:
- The goal here is to be as comfortable as you can. Dress in loose, breathable clothing and take a sweater just in case you get cold. Opt for flat, well-fitting shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell during the journey. Leave the stilettos and hiking boots in your luggage.
- 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 regular leg and foot exercises in your seat helps to prevent this from happening. Wearing a good-quality pair of compression socks or tights also helps reduce the risk.
