Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a seamless experience if you've prepared well enough. Follow these handy tips and tricks that will help get your Mastita holiday started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Travelling on a plane can be a comfortable experience if you bring the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want some basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a spare change of clothes and a good read. Secondly, make room in your hand luggage for your phone, tablet and chargers, any medications and maybe a comfy neck pillow too. Lastly, don't forget to take your passport, travel documents and your bank cards.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Make sure you don't have a sharp object hiding in the bottom of your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable substances, like aerosols and matches, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort should be your number one priority when deciding what to wear on board. Loose clothing is a smart option, as are roomy, closed-toe shoes.
- It's likely you've heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. To reduce your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression tights or socks and move your lower limbs often.
