We’ve got the lowdown on how to make your journey as pain-free as possible. Follow our top tips and you’ll be breezing through the airport and enjoying Gomel in next to no time.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Travelling on a plane can be a great experience if you pack the right things. Firstly, you’ll want some basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and some deodorant, a clean pair of socks and a few magazines. Secondly, find a spot in your hand luggage for your phone and charger, any vital medications and maybe a neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, be sure to bring your passport, travel documents and some money.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Make sure you don’t have sharp or pointed objects hiding in your hand luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive substances, such as fuel and fireworks, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3null4 ounces (100 milliliters).
What to wear on a flight:
- The answer to a comfortable flight is as simple as your clothing choices. Prepare for changes in temperature by layering up. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin gets too cold. Shoes like flip flops and heels are best left for other occasions. Even though they may be your favourites, go for flat, closed-toed footwear like sneakers. Your feet will thank you later.
- A serious condition by the name of DVT (deep vein thrombosis) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clotting due to inactivity and poor circulation. Doing foot and leg exercises in your seat helps to prevent this from occurring. Wearing a good-quality pair of compression socks also helps reduce the risk.
