Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you prepare well enough. We've put together a list of handy hints that will help get your Rohnert Park escape started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The secret to having a stress-free travel experience is to pack ahead. So, let's start with the basics: passport, travel documents, cash and important medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help while away those hours, like some electronic gadgets or a magazine. It's also a wise idea to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones. Finally, be sure to chuck in toiletry items like a toothbrush, lip balm and a clean T-shirt.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Double-check that you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) lurking in one of the zippers of your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive goods, such as fuel and matches, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3null4 ounces (100 milliliters).
What to wear on a flight:
- The key to a comfortable flight is often as simple as the clothes you wear. Prepare yourself for varying temperatures by bringing layers. That way you'll stay nice and warm if the cabin gets too cold. Shoes like flip flops and heels are best left for other occasions. Even though they may be your favourites, opt for flat, closed-toed footwear like slip-ons. Your feet will thank you later.
- The result of lengthy periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a serious condition that can affect passengers on long-haul flights. The great news is there are proven ways to lower your risk of developing it. Keep your fluids up, wander through the cabin wherever possible and wear compression socks to help improve your circulation.
