Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Benecko could be as easy as pie or it could drag on forever. Below are some handy tips that will help you start your next great adventure on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- A plane ride can be a cruisy experience if you bring the right stuff. First things first, you'll need toiletry items, such as deodorant, toothpaste and a toothbrush, a clean set of clothes and a good novel. Next, find a spot in your hand luggage for your laptop, a charger, your important medications and perhaps a neck pillow as well. Lastly, be sure to take your passport, travel papers and your credit cards.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated. Sharp objects, like your trusty Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and gasoline, are also prohibited.
What to wear on a flight:
- Go for comfort over style. Prepare for changes in cabin temperature by wearing layers, and pick flat, closed-toe footwear like slip-ons.
- Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It results from blood clotting due to inactivity and poor circulation, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks.
