We've got the lowdown on how to make your journey as stress-free as possible. Follow our insider tips and you'll be zooming through airport security and enjoying Sudbury in next to no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Air travel can be a pleasure if you take the right things. Firstly, you'll want some toiletry items, such as lip balm and hand cream, a clean pair of socks and something to read. Secondly, leave space in your bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, your medications and maybe a blow-up neck pillow too. Lastly, be sure to take your passport, travel docs and some money.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Check carefully that you don't have a pocket knife lurking in your hand luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable goods, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).
What to wear on a flight:
- You'll want to choose comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes by wearing layers, and pick flat, slightly roomy footwear like sneakers.
- The result of sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers during long-distance flights. Reduce the risks by drinking water, keeping your feet and legs moving and wearing compression socks to help improve your circulation.
