We've rounded up all the info you need to make your journey as stress-free as possible. Follow our tips and you'll be breezing through airport security and having a ball in Toan before you know it. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- It's easy — first, pack your passport, travel docs, credit cards and medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A thrilling book and a tablet filled with your favourite shows are some terrific options. If you hope to catch more than just forty winks, a quality neck pillow and some earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, leave space for a few toiletry items to ensure you hop off the plane looking fresh and ready to go.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of prohibited items differs between airlines, the general rule to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes knives, scissors, spray paint and flares. Sporting equipment like hockey sticks, and objects that could harm other people, such as pepper spray and firearms, are also banned from the cabin.
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort should be your highest priority when choosing what to wear during your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a smart option, as are roomy, closed-toe shoes.
- Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by extended periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to walk around the cabin and stretch your legs or do some simple exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.
