Depending on where you’re coming from, your journey to Canmore could be completely stress-free or it could drag on forever. We’ve compiled some useful hints that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- It’s simple — first, put in your passport, important documents, credit cards and daily medications. Next, you’ll need some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy novel and a phone filled with your favourite movies are some terrific options. If you intend to take a quick snooze, a quality neck pillow and some noise-cancelling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, find room for a few toiletry items so you’ll hop off the plane looking and feeling fresh.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Leave all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3null4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Sharp or pointed objects, like your beloved pocket knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as spray paint, flares and fireworks, are also banned.
What to wear on a flight:
- The aisles of a plane are no place for a fashion parade. Wear comfortable clothes and don’t forget to bring a sweater as it can get chilly inside the cabin on long-haul flights. Flat, enclosed shoes are also recommended.
- The result of lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a serious condition that can affect some passengers during long flights. The great news is there are proven ways to reduce your risk of developing it. Stay well hydrated, get up and wander the aisles as much as possible and wear compression tights or socks.
