Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you're well organised. Follow these top travel tips that will help get your Ladyville holiday started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- A plane ride can be a comfortable experience if you take the right stuff. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a fresh set of clothes and a good novel. Next, leave space in your carry-on bag for your mobile phone, a charger, your important medications and perhaps a quality neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, remember to bring your passport, travel documents and your credit cards.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Leave all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3null4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Sharp or pointed objects, like a Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, flares and fuels, are also prohibited.
What to wear on a flight:
- The long, narrow aisles of an airplane are no place for a fashion parade. Don comfortable layers and don't forget to bring a sweater as it tends to get cool inside the cabin. Slightly roomy, flat shoes are always a good choice too.
- A condition by the name of DVT (deep vein thrombosis) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to inactivity and poor circulation. Doing leg and foot exercises in your seat helps to prevent this from occurring. Wearing a good-quality pair of compression socks or tights is also a wise idea.
