We've rounded up all the info you need to make your journey as stress-free as possible. Follow our top tips and you'll be speeding through airport security and having a ball in Giresun in no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The secret to having a stress-free flight experience is to be prepared. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, official ID, credit cards and medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help while away those hours, like some electronic devices or a magazine. It's also smart to bring your chargers, a quality 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 fresh change of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Make sure you don't have sharp or pointed objects hiding in the bottom of your hand luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive substances, such as bleach and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).
What to wear on a flight:
- You'll want to choose comfort over style. Prepare for changes in temperature by donning layers, and opt for closed-toe, flat footwear like sneakers.
- Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to wander around the cabin or do some gentle exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.
