- A plane ride can be a stress-free experience if you've got all the right things. First of all you'll need basic toiletries, such as deodorant, toothpaste and a toothbrush, a spare pair of socks and a good book. Next, leave space in your bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, medications and maybe a quality neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, be sure to bring your passport, travel documents and some money.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Check carefully that you don't have a sharp object hiding in the bottom of your hand luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable products, such as fuel and fireworks, 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 changes in cabin temperature by layering up, and pick flat, enclosed footwear like sneakers.
- Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a potential risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to poor circulation, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression tights or socks.
