Do you have any tips for my flight to Mataking Island?

  • Get your vacation off to a good start by being well prepared. Pack the important stuff — like your passport, travel documents and any medications you need — first. After that, consider downloading the latest movies on your tablet or phone for a binge session sans guilt. Or, toss in that novel you’ve been eager to read. Lastly, a snack or two and a quality neck pillow will go a long way to making the journey as comfy as possible.
  • It also pays to check with your airline regarding what you can’t bring on board your flight. Knives, box cutters, razor blades, batons and swords are among the prohibited items. Anything explosive, flammable or sharp is generally not allowed in your carry-on. Be sure to pack any sports equipment like baseball bats or tennis rackets in your checked luggage.

What to wear on a flight:

  • The aisles of an aircraft aren’t designed to be a catwalk. Layer up with comfortable clothing and pack a sweater as it can get cool in the cabin on long-haul flights. Sneakers or enclosed, flat shoes are ideal for longer journeys.
  • The condition known as deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-haul flights. It’s the result of blood clotting caused by poor circulation and inactivity. Walking up and down the aisle and doing leg and foot stretches while seated can help prevent this developing. Wearing compression tights or socks can also help to reduce your risk.

How can I get a cheap last-minute flight to Mataking Island?
If you want to nab a cheap last-minute flight to Mataking Island, flexibility is key. If possible, have a bit of wiggle room with your travel dates. It also helps to have a bit of flexibility with your departure and arrival points, airline choice, flight times and potential stops or layovers.
