Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you're prepared. We've put together a list of essential travel tips that will help get your Gregory Town escape started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Flying can be a stress-free experience if you take the right things. First of all you'll need toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a clean pair of socks and a few magazines. Next, leave space in your bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, medications and maybe a comfy neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, remember to take your passport, travel papers and your credit cards.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Double-check that you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) lurking in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive products, such as bleach and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume 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 cabin temperature by wearing layers, and wear flat, slightly roomy shoes like sneakers.
- Caused by sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers during long-distance flights. Lower your risks by drinking water, keeping your legs moving and wearing compression socks to help your circulation.
