If you're poorly prepared, air travel can be testing. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these useful tips and enjoy a pleasant start to your time in Marijampole. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- A plane trip can be a pleasure if you bring the right stuff. First things first, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as deodorant, toothpaste and a toothbrush, a spare pair of socks and a good book. Secondly, leave space in your bag for your phone and charger, your medications and maybe a comfy neck pillow too. Lastly, be sure to bring your passport, travel papers and some cash.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Make sure you don't have a pocket knife hiding in the bottom of your hand luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable substances, like aerosols and matches, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).
What to wear on a flight:
- The aisles of a plane are no place for a fashion parade. Wear layers and choose shoes that are flat and easy to pull on and off.
- Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Walk around the cabin and give your legs a stretch or do some simple exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.
