Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Dorida could be a breeze or it could drag on forever. We've pulled together some useful travel tips that will help you start your unforgettable escape on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The secret to having a great travel experience is to be prepared. So, let's start with the basics: passport, official ID, cash and daily medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you occupied, like some electronic gadgets or a good book. It's also wise to pack your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones. Last but not least, be sure to chuck in toiletry items like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a fresh change of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Make sure you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) hiding in your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive products, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3null4 ounces (100 milliliters).
What to wear on a flight:
- The long, narrow aisles of an aircraft are no fashion runway. Don comfortable layers and take a sweater as it tends to get cool inside the cabin on long-haul flights. Enclosed, flat shoes are also recommended.
- The serious condition by the name of DVT (deep vein thrombosis) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to poor circulation and inactivity. Walking up and down the aisle and doing foot and leg exercises in your seat helps to prevent this occurring. Wearing a high-quality pair of compression socks or tights can also help.
