No matter where you're coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you're well organised. We've put together a list of top travel tips that will get your Banner Hill escape started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- First, pack in your passport, official ID, bank cards and medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to while away the time. A juicy book and a tablet filled with your favourite movies are some great options. If you intend to catch more than just forty winks, a comfy neck pillow and some noise-cancelling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, squeeze in a toothbrush and some facial wipes so you'll touchdown looking fresh and raring to go.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Check carefully that you don't have a sharp object lurking in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable substances, such as fuel and fireworks, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3null4 ounces (100 milliliters).
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort really should be your highest priority when choosing what to wear on your flight. Consider your choice of footwear with care too, as swollen feet and ankles can be a side effect of flying. Flat shoes which are slightly roomy work well.
- Caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a condition that can affect some passengers on long-haul flights. The great news is there are ways to reduce your risk of developing it. Keep your fluids up, get up and wander the aisles whenever possible and wear compression tights or socks.
