No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you've planned ahead. Take a peek at these top travel tips that will help get your Voi holiday started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Flying can be a stress-free experience if you carry the right things. First things first, you'll need toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and some deodorant, a fresh change of clothes and a few magazines. Next, find room in your hand luggage for your phone, tablet and chargers, any daily medications and perhaps a comfy neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to take your passport, travel documents and your credit cards.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp or pointed objects, like a pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as spray paint, flares and gasoline, are also not allowed.
What to wear on a flight:
- The aisles of an aircraft are no place for a fashion parade. Layer your clothing and pick shoes that are flat, roomy and easy to remove.
- The result of prolonged periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers during long-distance flights. Lower your risks by staying hydrated, keeping your lower limbs moving and wearing compression socks to help your circulation.
