- Travelling on a plane can be easy if you take the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want some basic toiletry items, such as lip balm and hand cream, a spare change of clothes and a magazine or two. Secondly, make room in your carry-on bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, any daily medications and maybe a blow-up neck pillow as well. Lastly, don't forget to take your passport, travel papers and your credit cards.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of banned items can differ between airlines, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, drills, aerosol cans and flares. Sporting equipment like hockey sticks, and objects that could injure passengers, such as firearms and ammunition, aren't allowed in the cabin either.
What to wear on a flight:
- You'll want to go for comfort over style. Prepare for changes in temperature by donning layers, and wear flat, closed-toe shoes like sneakers.
- Most travellers have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of inactivity. To minimize your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression socks and keep your legs and feet moving.
