We’ve got the lowdown on how to make your journey as stress-free as possible. Follow our tips and tricks and you’ll be cruising through the airport and seeing the best of Maykop in no time at all.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The secret to having a great travel experience is to plan ahead. First up, the essentials: passport, official ID, cash and vital medications. Next, bring items that’ll help keep you entertained, like your laptop or a juicy novel. It’s also wise to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. And of course, don’t forget to chuck in toiletries like a toothbrush, lip balm and a clean T-shirt.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Leave all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Pointed or sharp objects, like a pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, bleaching agents and gasoline, are also prohibited.
What to wear on a flight:
- The best way to ensure a comfortable flight is as simple as your choice in clothes. Prepare for changes in temperature by bringing layers. That way you’ll stay nice and warm if the cabin begins to cool down. Shoes like flip flops and heels are best left in your checked suitcase. Instead, opt for flat, closed-toed footwear like slip-ons. Your feet will thank you later.
- Unfortunately, one risk of flying long distances is developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by extended periods of inactivity. To prevent this, take every opportunity to walk around the cabin and stretch your legs. Compression tights and socks are another easy way to help minimize this risk.
