Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you're well prepared. Check out these handy travel tips that will get your Greensboro escape started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Flying can be a comfortable experience if you've got all the right things. Firstly, you'll want a few basic toiletries, such as deodorant, toothpaste and a toothbrush, a clean set of clothes and a few magazines. Secondly, find room in your carry-on bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, any medications and perhaps a proper neck pillow too. Lastly, be sure to bring your passport, travel docs and your bank cards.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3null4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Sharp objects, like your pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as spray paint, flares and fuels, are also prohibited.
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort should always be your prime concern when picking what to wear during your flight. Consider your footwear choice with care too, as swollen ankles and feet can be a side effect of flying. Roomy, closed-toed shoes are your best bet.
- Caused by sustained periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers during long-haul flights. The great news is there are proven ways to reduce your risk of developing it. Keep your fluids up, walk around the cabin whenever possible and wear compression tights or socks.
