Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you're well organised. Take a peek at these handy tips and tricks that will get your Tufanbeyli holiday started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Flying can be a pleasure if you pack the right stuff. First things first, you'll need basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a fresh change of clothes and a good novel. Next, find room in your hand luggage for your phone and charger, any daily medications and perhaps a quality neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, be sure to bring your passport, travel documents and your bank cards.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of banned items differs between airlines, the general guide to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, blades, fireworks and fuel. Sports equipment like bows and arrows, and items that could harm other people, such as swords and batons, can't come on board with you either.
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort really should be your highest priority when deciding what to wear on board. Consider your footwear carefully too, as swelling of the feet and ankles are a common occurrence. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are always a smart option.
- Unfortunately, a risk of long-distance travel is developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To prevent this, take every opportunity to stretch your legs and walk around the cabin. Compression socks and tights are another great idea to help reduce this risk.
