Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Krems an der Donau could be a breeze or it could drag on forever. Here are some useful hints that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Air travel can be a pleasure if you carry the right gear. Firstly, you'll want a few basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and some deodorant, a clean set of clothes and a few magazines. Next, find a spot in your bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, any daily medications and maybe a cosy neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, be sure to take your passport, travel papers and some cash.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Check carefully that you don't have a pocket knife lurking in the bottom of your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive products, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).
What to wear on a flight:
- The aisles of a plane aren't the place for a fashion parade. Wear layers and pick shoes that are flat and easy to remove.
- Most of us have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of inactivity. To lower your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression socks or tights and move your legs and feet often.
