RADIO STAR SAMI LUKIS REVEALS THE SURPRISING HOUSEHOLD ITEM SHE ALWAYS TAKES TRAVELLING

Sami Lukis has revealed the one surprising household item she always takes on holiday with her.

The radio star, 54, is known for her jet-setting lifestyle and has shared some of her top travel tips, including the unexpected item she always takes with her.

Sami revealed she always takes a small ziplock bag filled with washing powder so she can wash her delicates in the sink in her hotel room.

Sharing her surprise travel trip, Sami told 9Travel: 'You get to a destination. Maybe you can't find a laundry or you can't find a supermarket, and if you do, you have to buy an entire box of washing powder.

'But if you take a little bag of washing powder from home, you can wash your dedicates and your smalls in the sink in your hotel room.'

Sami shared her other top travel tips, including taking earplugs in case of a noisy flight or hotel and rolling rather than folding clothes in luggage to make more room.

Last week, Sami was caught in the global IT outage during her latest travels as her flight from Orlando was delayed amid the chaos.

Thousands of flights around the United States were either delayed or cancelled in the days following the massive Microsoft outage.

Sami detailed the chaos at Orlando International Airport on Friday as she admitted it wasn't a good day to be flying in posts shared to X - formerly known as Twitter.

She penned: 'Sitting here at Orlando airport waiting for my flight … and no one on the ground seems to know what’s going on. 

'Some flight cancelled. Some flights are boarding. Most are showing as delayed. For now.'

Hours later, Sami confirmed flights were beginning to board after the outage caused chaotic scenes at airports all around the globe.

'So flights at Orlando airport are now starting to board. Let’s hope this thing is sorted before they put planes back in the air,' she shared.

Windows is the most used operating system in the world, meaning the outage affected almost every part of the global economy. 

The technical fault - from an update pushed out to customers of cybersecurity firm CrowdStrike - caused Windows software to suddenly shut down, prompting departure boards to immediately turn off at many airports.

In a sign of the global impact of the IT failure, passengers were seen sleeping in passageways at Los Angeles International Airport, huge queues formed at terminals across Spain, and in Delhi staff set up a whiteboard to record departures.

Shops in Australia shut down or went cashless after digital checkouts stopped working, while in the US emergency services lines went down in Alaska, Arizona, Indiana, Minnesota, New Hampshire and Ohio.

Holidaymakers faced days of travel chaos in the days following the outage as flights continued to be cancelled or delayed amid a huge backlog.
