- Travelling on a plane can be a great experience if you bring the right stuff. First things first, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and some deodorant, a clean set of clothes and a good novel. Next, make room in your bag for your mobile phone, a charger, your important medications and perhaps a comfy neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, don't forget to bring your passport, travel documents and some cash.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Make sure you don't have a sharp object hiding in the bottom of your carry-on luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive goods, such as fuel and fireworks, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort should be your main concern when choosing what to wear during your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a sensible option, as are flat, slip-on shoes.
- Caused by sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers on long-haul flights. Reduce the risks by staying hydrated, keeping your legs and feet moving and wearing compression socks to help improve your circulation.
