When going on a trip, we pack everything we need in a suitcase upon arrival, and often only in the airplane seat do we realize that there are not enough things that are necessary for comfort in the flight itself. Tengritravel.kz together with Aviata.kz will tell you what you need to take with you for a comfortable trip on the plane.

Sleep mask
The mask is also a necessary element of a full rest during the flight. We recommend buying a mask of a simple design and the appropriate size.
Material. It is advisable to choose natural materials (silk, cotton). Cotton — hypoallergenic natural material, good air permeability. Silk sleep mask is good for contact with the delicate skin of the face, in the heat will give a sense of coolness. The color should preferably be dark or black.
Bracing. Choose a mask with elastic adjustment, it should be wide.
Case. It is necessary if you travel frequently. The case will protect the mask from dirt and damage.

Socks / Slippers
For long-distance flights, it is difficult to stay in shoes, we advise you to stock up on a pair of Slippers. Take warm socks and put them on immediately after boarding the plane. The feet will swell less than in shoes, and will not freeze.
Pay attention to compression socks. They help to improve blood circulation and reduce the risk of edema during a long flight.

But this is not always the case, some passengers have concerns about hygiene, and with the development of low-cost airlines, such services may sink into oblivion.
