Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Ladispoli could be simple and straightforward or it could go on forever. We've compiled some tips that will help you start your next big adventure on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- A plane trip can be a great experience if you've got all the right things. Firstly, you'll want a few basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a spare change of clothes and a magazine or two. Secondly, find room in your carry-on bag for your mobile phone, a charger, your medications and perhaps a cosy neck pillow as well. Lastly, be sure to bring your passport, travel papers and some money.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of prohibited items can differ between airlines, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, drills, spray paint and flares. Sports equipment like bows and arrows, and objects that could harm other people, such as firearms and ammunition, won't be allowed on board either.
What to wear on a flight:
- The main aim is to feel as comfortable as possible. Dress in loose, natural-fibre clothing and bring a pullover just in case you get cold. Always opt for flat, slightly roomy shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell a little during the journey. Leave the stilettos and chunky boots in your checked luggage.
- Unfortunately, one risk of long-distance flying is developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by extended periods of inactivity. To avoid this, make the most of every opportunity to walk around and give your legs a stretch. Compression tights and socks are another easy way to help lower your risk.
