We've got the lowdown on how to make your flight a stress-free experience. Follow our top tips and you'll be zooming through airport security and seeing the best of Fort Worth in no time flat.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- A plane trip can be a pleasure if you carry the right stuff. First of all you'll need basic toiletry items, such as toothpaste, a toothbrush and some deodorant, a spare pair of socks and a good book. Secondly, leave space in your carry-on bag for your mobile phone, a charger, any medications and perhaps a cosy neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to bring your passport, travel documents and your credit cards.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Make sure you don't have a sharp object hiding in your hand luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable products, such as fuel and matches, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3null4 ounces (100 milliliters).
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort should be your number one priority when picking what to wear during your flight. Consider your footwear choice carefully too, as swelling of the feet and ankles can be a side effect of flying. Shoes which are flat and slightly roomy are always a smart option.
- Unfortunately, one risk of long-distance travel is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged inactivity. To prevent this from happening, make the most of every opportunity to stretch your legs and walk around the cabin. Compression socks and tights are another easy way to help lower your risk.
