Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you're well organised. Follow these top travel tips that will get your Rajkot escape started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The trick to having a pain-free travel experience is to plan ahead. So, let's start with the basics: passport, boarding pass, cash and vital medications. Next, take on board items that'll help pass the time, like some electronic gadgets or a good read. It's also wise to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones. And of course, be sure to squeeze in toiletry items like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a fresh set of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of restricted items can differ between air carriers, the general rule to follow is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, pocket knives, aerosol cans and flares. Sports equipment like baseball bats, and objects that could harm passengers, such as swords and batons, won't be allowed on board either.
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort should be your number one priority when choosing what to wear during your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a wise option, as are flat, slightly roomy shoes.
- You're probably aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. To reduce your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression tights or socks and do gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat.
