Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Jersey City could be completely stress-free or it could drag on forever. We've rounded up some handy hints that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- It's simple — first, pack in your passport, travel docs, wallet and daily medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling book and a phone crammed with your favourite shows are some great options. If you hope to catch more than just forty winks, a quality neck pillow and some earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some deodorant to ensure you step off the plane feeling fresh as a daisy.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Check carefully that you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) lurking in one of the zippers of your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable substances, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3null4 ounces (100 milliliters).
What to wear on a flight:
- The long, narrow aisles of your airplane are not the place for a fashion parade. Wear comfortable clothes and take a sweater as the temperature can drop in the cabin. Flat, enclosed shoes are always a good idea too.
- Most travellers have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of sitting. There's plenty you can do to mitigate your risk. Wear a pair of compression socks or tights, drink lots of water and keep your legs and feet moving. Do a few laps of the cabin or perform some simple exercises in your seat.
