Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you've prepared well. We've made a list of handy travel tips that will help get your Enniscrone holiday started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- It's simple — first, pack your passport, important documents, cash and medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to while away the time. A juicy novel and a laptop filled with your favourite movies are some fantastic options. If you hope to catch forty winks, a comfy neck pillow and some noise-cancelling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, find room for a few toiletry items to ensure you touchdown looking and feeling fresh.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3null4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp or pointed objects, like your precious pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as spray paint, flares and strong acids, are also not allowed.
What to wear on a flight:
- The goal here is to make yourself as comfortable as possible. Layer up with loose, natural-fibre clothing and remember to pack a pullover just in case you get cold. Pick well-fitting, flat shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell during the flight. Leave the high heels and hiking boots in your checked baggage.
- A condition by the name of DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to poor circulation and inactivity. Walking up and down the aisle and doing foot and leg exercises while seated is a great way to prevent this from occurring. Wearing a good pair of compression socks can also help.
