Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Gallipoli could be no sweat at all or it could drag on forever. We've pulled together some tips that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The trick to having a pain-free flight experience is to pack in advance. First up, the essentials: passport, boarding pass, bank cards and daily medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you occupied, like your laptop or a good book. It's also wise to pack your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones. Finally, be sure to pop in toiletry items like a toothbrush, deodorant and a spare set of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of prohibited items can differ between airlines, the general rule to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes box cutters, razor blades, fuels and bleaching agents. Sports equipment like ice skates, and items that could harm passengers, such as pepper spray and firearms, won't be allowed on board either.
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort should be your top priority when deciding what to wear on your flight. Loose clothing is a wise option, as are flat, slightly roomy shoes.
- Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-distance flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to inactivity and poor circulation, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks or tights.
