Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you've prepared well enough. We've put together a list of handy tips and tricks that will help get your Domburg escape started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Firstly, and most importantly, pack your passport, important documents, bank cards and vital medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy novel and a tablet filled with your favourite shows are some wonderful options. If you intend to take a quick snooze, a comfy neck pillow and some noise-cancelling headphones will also be useful. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some deodorant to ensure you hop off the plane feeling fresh and ready to go.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of restricted items can differ between airlines, the general rule to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like box cutters, razor blades, spray paint and fireworks. Sporting equipment like baseball bats, and objects that could injure passengers, such as swords and guns, aren't allowed in the cabin either.
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort should be your top priority when choosing what to wear during your flight. Loose clothing is a sensible option, as are flat, slip-on shoes.
- Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Wander around the cabin and stretch your legs or do some simple exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.
