- Travelling on a plane can be a great experience if you pack the right things. Firstly, you'll need toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a clean pair of socks and something to read. Secondly, find a spot in your bag for your mobile phone, a charger, any vital medications and maybe a quality neck pillow as well. Lastly, remember to take your passport, travel docs and some money.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3null4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Sharp objects, like your pocket knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosols and strong acids, are also not allowed.
What to wear on a flight:
- The best way to ensure a comfortable flight is often as simple as your choice in clothes. Prepare for temperature changes by layering up. That way you'll stay nice and warm if the cabin starts to cool down. Shoes like high heels and sandals are best left in your suitcase. Instead, opt for flat, closed-toed footwear like slip-ons. Your feet will appreciate it.
- Unfortunately, a risk of long flights is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To prevent this, make the most of every opportunity to wander around the cabin. Compression tights and socks are another easy way to help lower your risk.
