Wherever you're coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you've prepared well enough. Check out these top travel tips that will help get your Adrspach escape started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- A plane trip can be a great experience if you pack the right things. Firstly, you'll want a few basic toiletries, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a fresh change of clothes and a few magazines. Secondly, make room in your hand luggage for your laptop, a charger, medications and perhaps a blow-up neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, be sure to bring your passport, travel documents and your bank cards.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated by security. Pointed or sharp objects, like a Swiss Army knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as spray paint, flares and poisons, are also restricted.
What to wear on a flight:
- You'll want to choose comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes by layering up, and opt for flat, slightly roomy footwear like slip-ons.
- Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Wander around the cabin and stretch your legs or do some simple exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.
