Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you've planned ahead. Take a peek at these handy tips and tricks that will get your Hondarribia holiday started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- It's simple — first, pack in your passport, travel documents, credit cards and vital medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy book and a phone crammed with your favourite shows are always good options. If you hope to take a short nap, a neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some deodorant so you'll touchdown feeling fresh and ready to go.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Make sure you don't have a sharp object hiding in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable substances, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3null4 ounces (100 milliliters).
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort really should be your highest priority when picking what to wear on your flight. Consider your footwear choice carefully too, as swollen feet and ankles are quite common. Roomy, closed-toed shoes work well.
- Unfortunately, a risk of flying long-haul is developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity. To avoid this, take every opportunity to walk around and give your legs a stretch. Compression socks and tights are another easy way to help reduce this risk.
