- The secret to having an awesome travel experience is to pack in advance. So, let’s start with the essentials: passport, boarding pass, credit cards and daily medications. Next, bring on board items that’ll help while away those hours, like some electronic gadgets or a few magazines. You’ll also want to pack your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones. Last but not least, be sure to squeeze in toiletry items like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a clean T-shirt.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of prohibited items can differ between air carriers, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like tools, metal cutlery, fuel and fireworks. Sports equipment like bows and arrows, and objects that could harm other people, such as firearms and ammunition, are also banned from the cabin.
What to wear on a flight:
- The narrow aisles of an aircraft are no fashion runway. Don comfortable layers and remember to take a sweater as it can get chilly in the cabin during long-haul flights. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are also a good idea.
- Caused by sustained periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers during long-haul flights. But the great news is there are proven ways to reduce your risk of developing it. Stay hydrated, walk around the cabin as much as you can and wear compression socks or tights.
