Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you're well organised. We've put together a list of handy travel tips that will help get your Hjørring holiday started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- First, put in your passport, travel docs, cash and vital medications. Next, you'll need some in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy book and a laptop filled with your favourite shows are some fantastic options. If you plan to catch forty winks, a quality neck pillow and some earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, make room for a few toiletry items to ensure you hop off the plane feeling fresh and raring to go.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of restricted items can differ between air carriers, the general guide to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, blades, fuels and bleaching agents. Sports equipment like bows and arrows, and objects that could injure passengers, such as firearms and swords, can't come on board with you either.
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort should be your priority when deciding what to wear during your flight. Consider your footwear carefully too, as swollen feet are a common occurrence. Flat shoes which are slightly roomy are your best bet.
- It's likely you've heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. There are plenty of ways to lower your risk. Wear a pair of compression tights or socks, stay well hydrated and get your legs and feet moving. Do a lap or two of the cabin or try out some exercises in your seat.
