Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Dubuque could be completely stress-free or it could go on forever. Here are some handy tips that will help you start your next big adventure on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Travelling on a plane can be a stress-free experience if you bring the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want some toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and some deodorant, a spare change of clothes and a few magazines. Secondly, make room in your bag for your mobile phone, a charger, your important medications and maybe a comfy neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, be sure to take your passport, travel documents and some money.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Double-check that you don't have a Swiss Army knife hiding in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive goods, such as fuel and fireworks, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3null4 ounces (100 milliliters).
What to wear on a flight:
- Your aim here is to make yourself as comfortable as you can. Layer up in natural fibers and bring a jacket in case it gets chilly in the cabin. Go for a pair of well-fitting, flat shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell during the flight. Leave the high heels and heavy boots in your luggage.
- The result of sustained periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a serious condition that can affect passengers on long-distance flights. But the good news is there are proven ways to significantly reduce the risk of developing it. Keep your fluids up, get up and walk around the cabin as often as you can and wear compression tights or socks.
