Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Dunfanaghy could be completely stress-free or it could go on forever. We've rounded up some useful tips that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Air travel can be a stress-free experience if you take the right things. First things first, you'll need toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a fresh set of clothes and a few magazines. Secondly, make room in your hand luggage for your electronic devices, chargers, your important medications and maybe a cosy neck pillow as well. Lastly, don't forget to bring your passport, travel docs and your credit cards.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of banned items can differ between air carriers, the general guide to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, knives, fireworks and fuel. Sports equipment like hockey sticks, and items that could harm other people, such as pepper spray and firearms, are also banned from the cabin.
What to wear on a flight:
- The narrow aisles of your aircraft are no fashion runway. Wear comfortable clothes and take a sweater as it tends to get cool in the cabin. Flat, enclosed shoes are also a good idea.
- Unfortunately, one risk of long-distance travel is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by extended periods of inactivity. To avoid this, take every opportunity to walk around the cabin and stretch your legs. Compression socks and tights are another simple way to help lower your risk.
