Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Cardonal could be completely stress-free or it could go on forever. We've pulled together some useful tips that will help you start your next great adventure on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The trick to having a hassle-free travel experience is to be prepared. Start with the essentials: passport, official ID, credit cards and any vital medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you busy, like some electronic gadgets or a good book. It's also wise to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones. And of course, don't forget to pop in toiletries like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a clean set of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Leave all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) won't be allowed on. Sharp or pointed objects, like a Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, flares and matches, are also prohibited.
What to wear on a flight:
- Your top priority is to be as comfortable as possible. Choose slip-on footwear, dress in loose, natural-fibre clothing and remember to take a pullover in case you get chilly in the cabin.
- You're probably aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of sitting. To lessen your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression tights or socks and move your legs and feet often.
