If you’re not prepared, airports and flying can be a real challenge. But don’t hit the panic button just yet. Follow these handy tips for a pain-free start to your time in Itoman.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Travelling on a plane can be a comfortable experience if you carry the right gear. Firstly, you’ll need toiletry items, such as toothpaste, a toothbrush and some deodorant, a clean set of clothes and a magazine or two. Next, make room in your hand luggage for your phone, tablet and chargers, your medications and perhaps a blow-up neck pillow too. Lastly, be sure to bring your passport, travel papers and your bank cards.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Check carefully that you don’t have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) hiding in your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive substances, like aerosols and matches, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3null4 ounces (100 milliliters).
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort should always be your prime concern when picking what to wear on board. Consider your choice of footwear carefully too, as swollen feet are quite common. Roomy, closed-toed shoes are always a good idea.
- Unfortunately, a risk of flying long-haul is developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity. To prevent this, make the most of every opportunity to walk around the cabin and stretch your legs. Compression tights and socks are another great idea to help reduce this risk.
