Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Taiz could be simple and straightforward or it could drag on forever. We've rounded up some handy tips that will help you start your unforgettable escape on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Air travel can be a cruisy experience if you bring the right gear. Firstly, you'll want a few basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a fresh set of clothes and a few magazines. Next, find a spot in your carry-on bag for your electronic devices, chargers, medications and perhaps a cosy neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to bring your passport, travel documents and your credit cards.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of restricted items can differ between airlines, the general rule of thumb is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, blades, spray paint and fireworks. Sporting equipment like ski poles, and items that could harm other people, such as firearms and swords, won't be allowed on board either.
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort really should be your prime concern when picking what to wear during your flight. Consider your choice of footwear with care too, as swollen feet are a common occurrence. Slightly roomy, flat shoes are always a good idea.
- Most travellers have heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of inactivity. There are numerous ways to lower your risk. Wear a pair of compression tights or socks, drink lots of water and move your legs and feet. Walk around the cabin when possible or perform exercises in your seat.
