We've rounded up all the info you need to make your flight as enjoyable as possible. Follow our tips and tricks and you'll be breezing through the airport and discovering Borlange in no time at all. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The trick to having a pain-free flight experience is to plan ahead. Start with the essentials: passport, travel docs, bank cards and vital medications. Next, bring items that'll help keep you busy, like your laptop or a good read. It's also smart to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Last but not least, don't forget to pop in toiletries like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a spare set of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Pack all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated. Pointed or sharp objects, like your trusty pocket knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as spray paint, flares and matches, are also not allowed.
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort should be your main concern when deciding what to wear during your flight. Loose clothing is a sensible option, as are flat, slightly roomy shoes.
- Caused by sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers during long-haul flights. Reduce the risks by staying hydrated, keeping your legs and ankles moving and wearing compression socks to help improve your circulation.
