Wherever you're coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you've prepared well enough. We've compiled a list of handy travel tips that will get your Aktio-Vonitsa escape started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The trick to having a hassle-free flight experience is to be prepared. So, let's start with the basics: passport, official ID, credit cards and important medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you entertained, like your laptop or a thrilling novel. It's also wise to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earphones. Last but not least, be sure to squeeze in toiletry items like a toothbrush, lip balm and a spare change of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Make sure you don't have a Swiss Army knife hiding in your hand luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive goods, such as bleach and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).
What to wear on a flight:
- You'll want to go for comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes by layering up, and pick closed-toe, flat footwear like sneakers.
- Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to wander around the cabin or do some gentle exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.
