No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you've prepared well. Take a peek at these handy tips and tricks that will get your Brewerton holiday started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The trick to having a pain-free flight experience is to be prepared. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, travel documents, cash and any vital medications. Next, bring items that'll help while away those hours, like your laptop or a few magazines. It's also a wise idea to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. And of course, don't forget to toss in toiletry items like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a fresh change of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Check carefully that you don't have a sharp object hiding in one of the compartments of your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable products, such as bleach and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3null4 ounces (100 milliliters).
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort really should be your main priority when choosing what to wear on board. Consider your choice of footwear carefully too, as swelling of the feet and ankles can be a side effect of flying. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are always a good idea.
- A serious condition called deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to poor circulation and inactivity. Walking up and down the aisle and doing foot and leg exercises in your seat helps to prevent this happening. Wearing a high-quality pair of compression socks also helps reduce your risk.
