No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you're prepared. Check out these handy tips and tricks that will help get your Ezine escape started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Air travel can be easy if you pack the right stuff. First of all you'll need basic toiletries, such as lip balm and hand cream, a clean set of clothes and a few magazines. Next, leave space in your hand luggage for your phone and charger, medications and maybe a quality neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, don't forget to bring your passport, travel papers and some money.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Make sure you don't have sharp or pointed objects lurking in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive products, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort should be your priority when choosing what to wear during your flight. Loose clothing is a sensible choice, as are roomy, closed-toe shoes.
- The result of lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers on long-haul flights. Lower your risks by staying hydrated, keeping your legs and feet moving and wearing compression socks or tights.
