Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you prepare well enough. We've compiled a list of handy travel tips that will get your Amambai vacation started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- First, put in your passport, important documents, wallet and medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to while away the time. A juicy book and a phone crammed with your favorite shows are some wonderful options. If you hope to catch a few z's, a comfy neck pillow and some noise-canceling headphones will also be useful. Finally, squeeze in a toothbrush and some facial wipes so you'll step off the plane feeling fresh and raring to go.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Make sure you don't have a pocket knife lurking in the bottom of your hand luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive substances, such as fuel and matches, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).
What to wear on a flight:
- Your number one priority is to make yourself as comfortable as possible. Layer up with loose, natural fibers and don't forget to pack a cardigan in case it gets chilly in the cabin. Go for a pair of flat, slightly roomy shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell a little during the journey. Leave the stilettos and heavy hiking boots in your main luggage.
- The condition by the name of DVT (deep vein thrombosis) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It results from blood clots forming due to inactivity and poor circulation. Walking around the cabin and doing regular foot and leg exercises while seated helps to prevent this from occurring. Wearing a high-quality pair of compression tights or socks is also recommended.
