Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Plymouth could be simple and straightforward or it could go on forever. Below are some useful hints that will help you start your next great adventure on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Air travel can be a great experience if you carry the right things. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletries, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a fresh set of clothes and a magazine or two. Next, find room in your hand luggage for your laptop, a charger, your important medications and perhaps a quality neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, don't forget to take your passport, travel papers and some money.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of restricted items can differ between airlines, the general rule to follow is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, pocket knives, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sporting equipment like hockey sticks, and items that could harm passengers, such as swords and guns, won't be allowed on board either.
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort really should be your priority when choosing what to wear during your flight. Consider your choice of footwear carefully too, as swelling of the feet and ankles are quite common. Roomy, closed-toed shoes are always a smart option.
- Most travellers are aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by reduced mobility or inactivity. There's plenty you can do to reduce your risk. Don a pair of compression socks, drink plenty of water and keep your legs and feet moving. Wander around the cabin or perform some stretches in your seat.
