Wherever you’re coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you’ve prepared well. We’ve compiled a list of essential travel tips that will get your Marawi vacation started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Flying can be a stress-free experience if you take the right things. First things first, you’ll need toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a clean set of clothes and a magazine or two. Secondly, leave space in your carry-on bag for your electronic devices, chargers, your important medications and perhaps a neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, be sure to bring your passport, travel docs and your bank cards.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Sharp objects, like your treasured Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosols and strong acids, are also restricted.
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort really should be your number one priority when deciding what to wear during your flight. Consider your choice of footwear carefully too, as swollen feet and ankles are quite common. Slightly roomy, flat shoes are always a good idea.
- The result of lengthy periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a condition that can affect passengers on long-distance flights. But the great news is there are numerous ways to reduce the risk of developing it. Keep your fluids up, walk around the cabin as much as possible and wear compression socks to help improve your circulation.
