Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Bardia could be simple and straightforward or it could go on forever. We've put together some useful tips that will help you start your unforgettable escape on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The secret to having a stress-free travel experience is to pack ahead. First up, the essentials: passport, official ID, bank cards and daily medications. Next, bring items that'll help keep you busy, like your laptop or a magazine. You'll also want to pack your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones. Finally, don't forget to pop in toiletries like a toothbrush, lip balm and a spare set of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Double-check that you don't have a Swiss Army knife lurking in one of the zippers of your carry-on luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive goods, like aerosols and matches, 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 as simple as your choice in clothes. Prepare yourself for varying temperatures by bringing layers. That way you'll stay nice and warm if the cabin gets too cold. Shoes like flip flops and heels are best left in your checked suitcase. Even though they may be your favorites, opt for flat, closed-toed footwear like slip-ons. Your feet will thank you for it.
- It's likely you've heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of sitting. There are numerous ways to minimize your risk. Wear compression socks, drink lots of water and move your legs and feet. Do a few laps of the cabin or perform exercises in your seat.
