Things to be done on the day of the flight, in-flight and later

1. As it is going to be a long flight wear something comfortable preferably cotton full hand shirt and trousers. Wear your shoes
2. Be at the airport at least one hour before check in time.
3. Relax during flight, sleep as much as possible.
4. For vegetarians watch out before you eat for you may get non-vegetarian food even if you had asked for vegetarian. Veg. food is generally bland - fruits/juice are good choices.
5. Never hesitate to ask questions.
6. Once out of India be very careful (from sheer experience of seniors). Don't trust anyone. Don't hire a taxi (unless emergency) till you reach your destination. If required don't hesitate to spend money.
7. Don't hesitate to talk to people to ask questions. Usually people will answer all your queries satisfactorily.
8. Drink lot of fluids to get over with the jet lag as soon as possible upon arrival.
