Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Kissonerga could be a piece of cake or it could go on forever. We've compiled some useful travel tips that will help you start your next great escape on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Flying can be a stress-free experience if you bring the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want some toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare set of clothes and a few magazines. Secondly, leave space in your hand luggage for your phone, tablet and chargers, your medications and perhaps a cosy neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, remember to bring your passport, travel documents and your credit cards.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of prohibited items can differ between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, pocket knives, fireworks and fuel. Sporting equipment like ice skates, and items that could injure passengers, such as swords and guns, aren't allowed in the cabin either.
What to wear on a flight:
- The best way to ensure a comfortable flight is as simple as the clothes you wear. Prepare yourself for varying temperatures by layering up. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin gets too cold. Shoes like sandals and heels are best left in your suitcase. Even though they may be your favourites, go for flat, closed-toed footwear like slip-ons. Your feet will appreciate it.
- The result of sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a condition that can affect passengers on long-distance flights. But the good news is there are ways to significantly reduce the risk of developing it. Stay hydrated, wander around the cabin wherever possible and wear compression tights or socks.
