Wherever you’re jetting in from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you’ve prepared well enough. Take a peek at these handy travel tips that will get your Fethiye holiday started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- A plane ride can be a pleasure if you bring the right stuff. First things first, you’ll need toiletry items, such as toothpaste, a toothbrush and some deodorant, a spare change of clothes and a magazine or two. Next, find room in your carry-on bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, any vital medications and perhaps a cosy neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, remember to bring your passport, travel docs and some money.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of banned items differs between airlines, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, drills, fireworks and fuel. Sporting equipment like baseball bats, and items that could injure passengers, such as firearms and swords, can’t come on board with you either.
What to wear on a flight:
- The main aim is to feel as comfortable as you can. Don layers of breathable clothing and remember to bring a sweater in case you get cold. Go for a pair of flat, well-fitting shoes as your feet may swell during the flight. Leave the high heels and heavy boots in your checked baggage.
- Unfortunately, one risk of long-distance flying is developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged inactivity. To avoid this, make the most of every opportunity to walk around the cabin and stretch your legs. Compression tights and socks are another simple way to help reduce this risk.
