We've pulled together all the info you need to make your flight as stress-free as possible. Follow our insider tips and you'll be speeding through the airport and seeing the best of Lages in no time flat. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- A plane ride can be a comfortable experience if you carry the right gear. First of all you'll need basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a spare pair of socks and a good book. Secondly, find room in your hand luggage for your phone, tablet and chargers, your important medications and perhaps a comfy neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, be sure to take your passport, travel documents and some money.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated by security. Sharp or pointed objects, like your precious Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and matches, are also restricted.
What to wear on a flight:
- Your goal here is to feel as comfortable as possible. Pick flat, closed-toe shoes, dress in loose, natural fibers and remember to bring a jacket in case it gets chilly in the cabin.
- Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Make a point of walking around the cabin or do some simple exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.
