If you're poorly prepared, travelling can be daunting. But there's no need to panic. Follow these handy hints for a pain-free start to your time in Soje.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- It's simple — first, put in your passport, important documents, wallet and daily medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to while away the time. A juicy book and a laptop crammed with your favourite shows are always good options. If you plan to take a quick snooze, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also be useful. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some facial wipes to ensure you 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 hiding in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive substances, such as bleach and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).
What to wear on a flight:
- The key to a comfortable flight is often as simple as your choice of clothes. Prepare for changes in temperature by layering up. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin gets too cold. Shoes like flip flops and heels are best left in your suitcase. Instead, go for flat, closed-toed footwear like slip-ons. Your feet will thank you later.
- You've probably heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by reduced mobility or inactivity. There are numerous ways to lessen your risk. Don a pair of compression socks, drink lots of water often and get your legs and feet moving. Wander around the cabin or perform some simple exercises in your seat.
