No matter where you're coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you're prepared. Check out these handy tips and tricks that will help get your Chelmno holiday started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The trick to having an awesome flight experience is to be prepared. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, official ID, cash and medications. Next, bring items that'll help pass the time, like your laptop or a juicy novel. You'll also want to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. And of course, don't forget to toss in toiletry items like a toothbrush, lip balm and a fresh set of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of banned items can differ between airlines, the general rule to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes knives, scissors, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sporting equipment like baseball bats, and objects that could harm passengers, such as swords and guns, won't be allowed on board either.
What to wear on a flight:
- The aisles of an airplane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfy clothing and opt for shoes that are enclosed, flat and easy to remove.
- Most of us have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To lessen your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression tights or socks and keep your legs and feet moving.
