If you're not prepared, travelling can be daunting. But there's no need to hit the panic button just yet. Follow these handy hints for a hassle-free start to your getaway in Hanno. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Travelling on a plane can be a comfortable experience if you bring the right gear. First things first, you'll need toiletry items, such as lip balm and hand cream, a spare change of clothes and a few magazines. Secondly, make room in your bag for your mobile phone, a charger, any daily medications and maybe a cosy neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, don't forget to bring your passport, travel docs and some money.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp or pointed objects, like your Swiss Army knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and fireworks, are also not allowed.
What to wear on a flight:
- The aisles of a plane are no place for a fashion parade. Wear layers and pick shoes that are closed-toe, flat and easy to remove.
- Most travellers are aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To lessen your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression socks and keep your legs and feet moving.
