Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Anggi could be a breeze or it could drag on forever. We've compiled some handy travel tips that will help you start your unforgettable escape on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- It's simple — first, put in your passport, travel docs, cash and medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy book and a tablet filled with your favourite shows are some great options. If you intend to take a short snooze, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes so you'll hop off the plane looking and feeling fresh.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of restricted items differs between air carriers, the general rule to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, blades, aerosol cans and flares. Sports equipment like baseball bats, and objects that could harm other people, such as pepper spray and guns, won't be allowed on board either.
What to wear on a flight:
- The answer to a comfortable flight often lies in your choice of clothes. Prepare for changes in temperature by bringing layers. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin begins to cool down. Shoes like stilettos, flip flops and lace-up boots are best left in your suitcase. Instead, opt for flat, closed-toed footwear like slip-ons. Your feet will thank you for it.
- Unfortunately, one risk of long-distance travel is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged inactivity. To prevent this, make the most of every opportunity to walk around and give your legs a stretch. Compression tights and socks are also a great idea to help lower your risk.
