Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Mielno could be completely painless or it could drag on forever. Here are some tips that will help you start your next great escape on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Air travel can be a pleasure if you bring the right gear. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a spare change of clothes and a few magazines. Secondly, find room in your carry-on bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, any vital medications and maybe a proper neck pillow as well. Lastly, be sure to bring your passport, travel documents and your bank cards.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) won't be allowed on. Sharp or pointed objects, like your trusty Swiss Army knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, flares and poisons, are also not allowed.
What to wear on a flight:
- You'll want to choose comfort over style. Prepare for changes in temperature by donning layers, and opt for slightly roomy, flat footwear like slip-ons.
- Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to poor circulation, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks or tights.
