Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Fredrikstad could be simple and straightforward or it could go on forever. We've rounded up some tips that will help you start your next great escape on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- A plane ride can be a great experience if you've got all the right things. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a clean set of clothes and a good novel. Next, leave space in your hand luggage for your electronic devices, chargers, any vital medications and perhaps a cosy neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to take your passport, travel docs and some money.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Make sure you don't have a sharp object lurking in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable products, such as fuel and fireworks, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3null4 ounces (100 milliliters).
What to wear on a flight:
- The answer to a comfortable flight can be as simple as the clothes you wear. Prepare yourself for varying temperatures by bringing layers. That way you'll stay nice and warm if the cabin gets chilly. Shoes like stilettos, flip flops and lace-up boots are best left in your suitcase. Even though they may be your favourites, go for flat, closed-toed footwear like sneakers. Your feet will appreciate it.
- Most travellers have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by reduced mobility or inactivity. There's plenty you can do to lessen your risk. Wear compression socks or tights, drink lots of water often and move your legs and feet. Walk around the cabin when possible or try out some exercises in your seat.
