Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Leknes could be completely stress-free or it could drag on forever. We've put together some tips that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Air travel can be a stress-free experience if you take the right gear. Firstly, you'll want a few toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and some deodorant, a clean pair of socks and a few magazines. Secondly, leave space in your bag for your laptop, a charger, medications and maybe a blow-up neck pillow too. Lastly, don't forget to bring your passport, travel papers and some money.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Make sure you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) lurking in one of the compartments of your carry-on luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable goods, such as bleach and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3null4 ounces (100 milliliters).
What to wear on a flight:
- Your number one priority is to make yourself as comfortable as you can. Dress in loose, natural fibers and remember to bring a jacket just in case you get chilly. Always opt for well-fitting, flat shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell during the journey. Leave the stilettos and chunky boots in your main luggage.
- Unfortunately, one risk of long-distance flying is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged inactivity. To avoid this, make the most of every opportunity to walk around and give your legs a stretch. Compression socks and tights are also a great idea to help minimize this risk.
