Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you're prepared. Take a peek at these handy travel tips that will get your Conwy holiday started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- First of all, pack your passport, official ID, cash and daily medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A juicy book and a laptop crammed with your favourite movies are always good options. If you hope to take a short snooze, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, leave some space for a few toiletry items to ensure you step off the plane looking and feeling fresh.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Check carefully that you don't have sharp or pointed objects hiding in one of the zippers of your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable products, such as bleach and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).
What to wear on a flight:
- Your main priority is to feel as comfortable as possible. Go for shoes that are easy to pull on and off, dress in loose, natural fibers and don't forget to bring a pullover in case you get cold in the cabin.
- Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Make a point of walking around the cabin or do some simple exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.
