If you're poorly prepared, travelling can be challenging. But there's no need to panic. Follow these handy tips for a stress-free start to your time in Equinunk.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The trick to having a pain-free travel experience is to plan ahead. First up, the essentials: passport, official ID, cash and important medications. Next, take on board items that'll help while away those hours, like your laptop or a good read. It's also wise to pack your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones. And of course, don't forget to pop in toiletries like a toothbrush, deodorant and a clean T-shirt.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3null4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Pointed or sharp objects, like your treasured Swiss Army knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and fireworks, are also restricted.
What to wear on a flight:
- The long, narrow aisles of your plane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer yourself up with comfortable clothes and bring a cardigan as it can get quite cool inside the cabin on long-haul flights. Slightly roomy, flat shoes are always a good choice too.
- Unfortunately, a risk of flying long-haul is developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by extended periods of inactivity. To avoid this, take every opportunity to walk around and give your legs a stretch. Compression socks and tights are another easy way to help reduce this risk.
