- The trick to having an awesome travel experience is to pack in advance. So, let’s start with the essentials: passport, travel docs, credit cards and medications. Next, take on board items that’ll help keep you busy, like your laptop or a few magazines. It’s also a wise idea to pack your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Last but not least, don’t forget to pop in toiletry items like a toothbrush, deodorant and a clean set of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of restricted items can differ between airlines, the general guide to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, drills, aerosol cans and flares. Sports equipment like hockey sticks, and items that could harm passengers, such as firearms and ammunition, are also banned from the cabin.
What to wear on a flight:
- The answer to a comfortable flight is as simple as your clothing choices. Prepare for temperature changes by layering up. That way you’ll stay nice and warm if the cabin begins to cool down. Shoes like flip flops and heels are best left in your checked suitcase. Instead, opt for flat, closed-toed footwear like sneakers. Your feet will thank you for it.
- Caused by sustained periods of immobility, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers during long flights. The good news is there are ways to reduce the risk of developing it. Drink plenty of water, wander around the cabin as often as possible and wear compression socks to help improve your circulation.
