Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you've planned ahead. Take a peek at these handy tips and tricks that will get your Soria holiday started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Travelling on a plane can be easy if you take the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want a few basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a clean pair of socks and a good read. Next, leave space in your bag for your electronic devices, chargers, your medications and perhaps a quality neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to take your passport, travel papers and some money.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated. Sharp objects, like a pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, flares and gasoline, are also banned.
What to wear on a flight:
- You'll want to choose comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes by layering up, and opt for closed-toe, flat footwear like sneakers.
- Most travellers have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To lower your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression socks and do gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat.
