Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Echizen could be a piece of cake or it could drag on forever. We've put together some handy hints that will help you start your next great escape on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The trick to having an awesome flight experience is to pack in advance. Start with the essentials: passport, boarding pass, credit cards and vital medications. Next, bring items that'll help pass the time, like some electronic devices or a magazine. You'll also want to pack your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. And of course, be sure to pop in toiletry items like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a clean set of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3null4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp objects, like your Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, chemicals agents and matches, are also not allowed.
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort should always be your main priority when deciding what to wear on board. Consider your footwear carefully too, as swollen feet and ankles are a common occurrence. Shoes which are flat and slightly roomy are your best bet.
- Most travellers are aware of DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of sitting. There are many ways to reduce your risk. Wear a pair of compression socks or tights, drink plenty of water and remember to keep your legs and feet moving. Wander around the cabin or try out some exercises in your seat.
