Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Jerico could be completely painless or it could drag on forever. Below are some handy tips that will help you start your next great escape on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- A plane trip can be a great experience if you take the right stuff. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletries, such as toothpaste, a toothbrush and some deodorant, a clean set of clothes and a good novel. Secondly, leave space in your bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, any daily medications and perhaps a blow-up neck pillow too. Lastly, be sure to take your passport, travel papers and your credit cards.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3null4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp or pointed objects, like a pocket knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, bleaching agents and poisons, are also not allowed.
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort should be your prime concern when picking what to wear on your flight. Consider your choice of footwear carefully too, as swollen feet and ankles are a common side effect of flying. Shoes which are flat and slightly roomy are always a sensible way to go.
- Most travellers are aware of DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by reduced mobility or inactivity. There's lots you can do to mitigate your risk. Don a pair of compression socks, stay hydrated and move your legs and feet. Do a lap or two of the cabin or perform some stretches in your seat.
