Depending on where you’re coming from, your trip to Catania could be completely stress-free or it could go on forever. We’ve put together some useful travel tips that will help you start your next big adventure on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The trick to having a worry-free travel experience is to be prepared. So, let’s start with the basics: passport, boarding pass, cash and vital medications. Next, take on board items that’ll help pass the time, like your laptop or a good book. It’s also smart to pack your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earphones. And of course, be sure to squeeze in toiletries like a toothbrush, deodorant and a fresh set of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Double-check that you don’t have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) lurking in your hand luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive goods, such as fuel and fireworks, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3null4 ounces (100 milliliters).
What to wear on a flight:
- The aisles of an aircraft are no fashion runway. Wear comfortable clothes and don’t forget to bring a cardigan as it can get quite cool inside the cabin on long-haul flights. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are always a good choice too.
- A serious condition called deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clots forming due to poor circulation. Doing leg and foot exercises while seated helps to prevent this happening. Wearing a pair of compression socks also helps reduce your risk.
