  • Firstly, and most importantly, pack in your passport, travel docs, bank cards and daily medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the hours.

Finally, leave space for a few toiletry items to ensure you touchdown feeling fresh as a daisy.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

What to wear on a flight:

  • Comfort should always be your main priority when deciding what to wear on board. Consider your choice of footwear with care too, as swollen feet and ankles are quite common. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are always a smart option.
  • Caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a serious condition that can affect some passengers during long-haul flights. The good news is there are numerous ways to reduce your risk of developing it. Drink plenty of water, walk up and down the aisles as often as you can and wear compression socks to help improve your circulation.

  • Your electronic gadgets like laptops and phones will also have to go on a tray for inspection. Don't worry though, you'll be back online soon enough.
  • Want to bring along your favorite hand cream? Not a problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it's stored in a zip-lock bag, you're permitted to bring it with you in your carry-on baggage.
  • The right choice of footwear can save you a few precious minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on shoes usually aren't.
