We've rounded up all the info you need to make your journey a stress-free experience. Follow our top tips and you'll be cruising through the airport and enjoying Anacapri in no time flat.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- A plane ride can be easy if you take the right gear. First things first, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare pair of socks and a magazine or two. Secondly, make room in your hand luggage for your laptop, a charger, any medications and maybe a proper neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget to take your passport, travel documents and some money.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Make sure you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) lurking in the bottom of your carry-on luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive products, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3null4 ounces (100 milliliters).
What to wear on a flight:
- Your aim here is to be as comfortable as possible. Layer up with loose, breathable clothing and pack a sweater in case it gets cold in the cabin. Pick a pair of roomy, flat shoes as your feet may swell a little during the flight. Leave the stilettos and heavy hiking boots in your luggage.
- Unfortunately, a risk of long-haul flights is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To prevent this from happening, take every opportunity to walk around the cabin and stretch your legs. Compression tights and socks are another great idea to help lower your risk.
