If you're poorly prepared, air travel can be overwhelming. But there's no need to panic. Follow these helpful hints for a trouble-free start to your time in Vapi.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Travelling on a plane can be a great experience if you take the right stuff. First things first, you'll need basic toiletries, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a clean pair of socks and a good read. Secondly, find room in your bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, any medications and maybe a comfy neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to bring your passport, travel papers and your bank cards.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of restricted items differs between airlines, the general rule of thumb is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes knives, scissors, fireworks and fuel. Sporting equipment like hockey sticks, and objects that could injure passengers, such as swords and guns, aren't allowed in the cabin either.
What to wear on a flight:
- The aisles of your airplane are not the place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfortable clothing and bring a cardigan as it can get chilly in the cabin. Flat, enclosed shoes are also a good choice.
- Caused by sustained periods of immobility, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers during long-haul flights. The good news is there are ways to lower your risk of developing it. Drink plenty of water, wander through the cabin as often as possible and wear compression tights or socks.
