Wherever you're coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you've prepared well. We've put together a list of handy tips that will get your Chornomorsk holiday started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Travelling on a plane can be a comfortable experience if you've got all the right gear. Firstly, you'll need toiletry items, such as deodorant, toothpaste and a toothbrush, a clean set of clothes and a good novel. Next, make room in your bag for your electronic devices, chargers, any daily medications and maybe a quality neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, be sure to take your passport, travel documents and your bank cards.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Check carefully that you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) hiding in your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable substances, such as fuel and matches, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3null4 ounces (100 milliliters).
What to wear on a flight:
- The aisles of your plane are not the place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfortable clothing and don't forget to bring a cardigan as it can get quite cool inside the cabin. Flat, enclosed shoes are also recommended.
- Caused by sustained periods of immobility, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a condition that can affect passengers on long-distance flights. The good news is there are proven ways to reduce the risk of developing it. Stay well hydrated, get up and wander the aisles whenever possible and wear compression socks or tights.
