We’ve rounded up all the info you need to make your flight as stress-free as possible. Follow our tips and tricks and you’ll be speeding through the airport and discovering Todi before you know it.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The secret to having a pain-free flight experience is to be prepared. So, let’s start with the essentials: passport, travel docs, bank cards and medications. Next, bring on board items that’ll help pass the time, like your laptop or a few magazines. It’s also smart to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Last but not least, be sure to squeeze in toiletry items like a toothbrush, deodorant and a spare set of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3null4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp objects, like your beloved pocket knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and strong acids, are also restricted.
What to wear on a flight:
- The key to a comfortable flight often lies in the clothes you wear. Prepare yourself for varying temperatures by layering up. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin gets too cold. Shoes like high heels and sandals are best left for other occasions. Even though they may be your favourites, go for flat, closed-toed footwear like sneakers. Your feet will appreciate it.
- Most travellers are aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of inactivity. There’s lots you can do to mitigate your risk. Wear a pair of compression socks, stay well hydrated and move your legs and feet. Do a lap or two of the cabin or perform some simple exercises in your seat.
