Mann Ed Demalata
SIGURADONG marami na naman sa mga Pinoy ang na-disappoint dahil pahirapan na naman ang mag-travel ngayon dahil sa muling pagpapatupad ng mas istriktong protocols dulot ng muling pagtaas ng COVID-19 cases sa bansa.
Nang dahil nga sa Omicron variant, mas mahirap na namang ma-achieve ang ating travel goals ngayong 2022.
Aside from restrictions, exhausted frontliners are reminding us to stay at home and help minimize transmission.
In case the two-year wait has made you forget what it was like to explore the world outside, keep these reminders handy until the resumption of safe travels.
Narito ang ilang helpful tips na ibinahagi sa atin ng social media influencer atvdating “StarStruck” hopeful-turned-commercial pilot na si Mann Ed Demalata na maaari n’yong gawin kapag kayo’y magta-travel.
1. Travel light. Check your schedule and count the number of clothes you will be needing. Save yourself from the extra baggage weight by planning your outfits beforehand. The extra space will leave you room for some pasalubong.
2. Use the restroom at the airport departure area. This will help minimize the need to use the inflight lavatory. Aside from sanitary reasons, we all know the struggle of having to excuse ourselves from strangers to get to the lavatory if we’re assigned the window seat!
3. Upon check-in, ask the agents to place a “fragile” sticker on your baggage even if the items inside are not breakable. This is to ensure extra protection for your luggage especially if you are carrying designer brands.
4. Always bring fully charged power banks or portable chargers for your devices like camera, mobile phone, and tablet. Capturing picture-perfect moments and making emergency calls are priceless.
5. Bring a noise cancellation headset or ear buds. Keep yourself entertained during lull times by streaming your favorite series or jamming with your customized playlist. Additionally, snorers and crying infants are unavoidable so save yourself from the inconvenience.
6. Board as early as possible so that overhead bins will be available closest to your seats. Trust me, it will be a lot easier when you can readily get your luggage out for deplaning.
7. Bring a basic medicine and first aid emergency kit. This will come in handy in case any of you feel sick or encounter an accident. Do not forget to include your vitamins and supplements.
8. Arm yourself with information. Make sure you are updated with the COVID-19 data, travel requirements, and protocols in your destination. Whether you are going local or international, making sure you have the necessary documents or testing results will save you time and effort.
9. Always have rubbing alcohol with you. Carry a tightly-sealed bottle (one with a nozzle seems easy to use!) to avoid spillage. Bring a maximum of 100ml as a handcarry item and just place more in your check-in luggage so you can refill later. You can use clear tape around the cap and place the bottle in a resealable bag.
10. Bring your own sunshine. Make sure you have a cheerful attitude with you as you go out there and conquer. After all, that is what vacations are for!
Aside from flying, Capt. Demalata dedicates some time to sharing his experiences on social media. As a former actor, he remains sociable and loves interactions. These days, Demalata happily provides information and airline sneak peek to his more than 230,000 followers on Instagram.
