Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you've prepared well enough. Follow these handy hints that will help get your Montevrain holiday started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- It's easy — first, put in your passport, important documents, credit cards and vital medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy book and a laptop crammed with your favourite movies are some wonderful options. If you intend to catch a few z's, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, squeeze in a few toiletry items so you'll hop off the plane looking fresh and raring to go.
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 goods, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3null4 ounces (100 milliliters).
What to wear on a flight:
- Your aim here is to be as comfortable as you can. Dress in loose, natural fibers and don't forget to pack a cardigan just in case you get cold. Always opt for roomy, flat shoes as your feet may swell during the flight. Leave the high heels and heavy boots in your checked baggage.
- Caused by sustained periods of immobility, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers on long-haul flights. The great news is there are numerous ways to significantly reduce your risk of developing it. Keep your fluids up, walk around the cabin whenever possible and wear compression socks or tights.
