Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Pagimana could be completely stress-free or it could drag on forever. We've put together some useful hints that will help you start your next big adventure on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- First of all, pack your passport, official ID, credit cards and daily medications. Next, you'll want some extra in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy book and a laptop filled with your favourite movies are some great options. If you plan to take a short snooze, a quality neck pillow and some noise-cancelling headphones will also be useful. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some deodorant to ensure you step off the plane feeling fresh as a daisy.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Sharp or pointed objects, like your pocket knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, bleaching agents and fireworks, are also restricted.
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort should be the goal when picking what to wear on your flight. Consider your choice of footwear with care too, as swollen feet and ankles are quite common. Shoes which are flat and slightly roomy are always a smart option.
- Caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers on long-distance flights. But the great news is there are numerous ways to reduce your risk of developing it. Stay hydrated, get up and wander the aisles wherever possible and wear compression socks or tights.
