Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you've planned ahead. Take a peek at these essential travel tips that will get your Svitavy holiday started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The trick to having an awesome flight experience is to be prepared. First up, the essentials: passport, boarding pass, cash and any vital medications. Next, bring items that'll help keep you occupied, like some electronic devices or a few magazines. It's also a wise idea to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of headphones. And of course, don't forget to toss in toiletries like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a fresh set of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) won't be allowed on. Sharp or pointed objects, like your trusty Swiss Army knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, bleaching agents and matches, are also banned.
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort should be your top priority when deciding what to wear on your flight. Loose clothing is a sensible option, as are roomy, closed-toe shoes.
- Most travellers are aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. To lessen your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression socks or tights and keep your legs and feet moving.
