Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Gweedore could be no sweat at all or it could go on forever. We've compiled some handy travel tips that will help you start your next big adventure on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The trick to having an amazing travel experience is to plan ahead. Start with the essentials: passport, travel documents, credit cards and medications. Next, take on board items that'll help while away those hours, like some electronic devices or a thrilling novel. You'll also want to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. Finally, don't forget to squeeze in toiletry items like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a clean set of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Double-check that you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) lurking in your hand luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive substances, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).
What to wear on a flight:
- You'll want to go for comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes by layering up, and pick flat, slightly roomy footwear like sneakers.
- The result of sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers during long flights. Lower your risks by staying hydrated, keeping your ankles and legs moving and wearing compression tights or socks.
