Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you're well prepared. We've put together a list of handy travel tips that will get your Kvemo Alvani holiday started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- A plane trip can be a stress-free experience if you carry the right things. First things first, you'll need toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a spare pair of socks and a magazine or two. Next, make room in your carry-on bag for your electronic devices, chargers, your medications and perhaps a comfy neck pillow as well. Lastly, be sure 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, drills, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sports equipment like bows and arrows, and objects that could harm other people, such as firearms and ammunition, can't come on board with you either.
What to wear on a flight:
- The goal here is to make yourself as comfortable as you can. Layer yourself up in natural-fibre clothing and remember to pack a cardigan in case it gets cold in the cabin. Always go with well-fitting, flat shoes as your feet may swell a little during the journey. Leave the high heels and heavy hiking boots in your checked baggage.
- A serious condition called deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a potential risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clots forming due to poor circulation. Doing foot and leg exercises in your seat is a great way to prevent this occurring. Wearing a good pair of compression socks is also a wise idea.
