Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Nettle Bay could be simple and straightforward or it could drag on forever. We've pulled together some handy travel tips that will help you start your next big adventure on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- A plane trip can be easy if you pack the right things. First of all you'll need toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a clean set of clothes and a good book. Secondly, leave space in your hand luggage for your electronic gadgets, chargers, your important medications and maybe a neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, be sure to bring your passport, travel papers and your bank cards.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Check carefully that you don't have a Swiss Army knife lurking in the bottom of your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive products, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume 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. Don comfortable layers and opt for shoes that are roomy, flat and easy to remove.
- Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a potential risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clotting due to poor circulation, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression tights or socks.
