Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Lachen could be a breeze or it could drag on forever. We've rounded up some useful travel tips that will help you start your next big adventure on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The trick to having an awesome flight experience is to pack ahead. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, official ID, bank cards and medications. Next, bring items that'll help while away those hours, like your laptop or a good book. You'll also want to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earphones. And of course, don't forget to toss in toiletries like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a clean set of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp objects, like your Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, flares and poisons, are also prohibited.
What to wear on a flight:
- The aisles of an aircraft are no place for a fashion parade. Dress in comfortable layers and opt for shoes that are closed-toe, flat and easy to take on and off.
- Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Make a point of walking around the cabin or do some simple exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.
