We've got the lowdown on how to make your journey as pain-free as possible. Follow our insider tips and you'll be cruising through airport security and enjoying Istiaia-Aidipsos in no time flat.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Air travel can be a stress-free experience if you've got all the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want a few basic toiletries, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare change of clothes and a good novel. Next, find room in your bag for your phone and charger, any medications and maybe a comfy neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget to bring your passport, travel papers and some cash.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Make sure you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) hiding in the bottom of your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable substances, such as fuel and fireworks, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3null4 ounces (100 milliliters).
What to wear on a flight:
- The answer to a comfortable flight is as simple as the clothes you wear. Prepare for changes in temperature by bringing layers. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin starts to cool down. Shoes like flip flops and heels are best left for other occasions. Instead, opt for flat, closed-toed footwear like sneakers. Your feet will thank you for it.
- It's likely you've heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of inactivity. There are plenty of ways to reduce your risk. Wear a pair of compression tights or socks, stay hydrated and remember to keep your legs and feet moving. Walk the aisles of the cabin or perform exercises in your seat.
