Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you've planned ahead. Take a peek at these handy tips that will help get your Dipkarpaz holiday started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- First and foremost, pack in your passport, important documents, bank cards and medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to while away the hours. A thrilling novel and a phone crammed with your favourite shows are some fantastic options. If you intend to catch more than just forty winks, a neck pillow and some noise-cancelling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, leave some space for a toothbrush and some deodorant so you'll arrive at your destination feeling fresh as a daisy.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3null4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Sharp or pointed objects, like your treasured Swiss Army knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as spray paint, flares and poisons, are also banned.
What to wear on a flight:
- The long, narrow aisles of an aircraft are not the place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfortable clothing and remember to take a cardigan as it can get quite cool in the cabin. Flat, enclosed shoes are always a good choice too.
- Caused by sustained periods of immobility, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers on long-haul flights. The great news is there are proven ways to reduce your risk of developing it. Stay well hydrated, walk around the cabin whenever possible and wear compression tights or socks.
