Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a seamless experience if you're prepared. We've put together a list of handy hints that will help get your Kampung Janda escape started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- First of all, pack your passport, travel docs, bank cards and daily medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy book and a laptop crammed with your favourite movies are some wonderful options. If you plan to take a quick nap, a neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some deodorant to ensure you hop off the plane feeling fresh as a daisy.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Make sure you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) hiding in your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable substances, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).
What to wear on a flight:
- Your top priority is to feel as comfortable as you can. Pick easy-to-remove footwear, dress in loose, natural fibers and remember to take a jacket in case it gets cold in the cabin.
- Most travellers have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. To minimize your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression socks or tights and keep your legs and feet moving.
