No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you're prepared. We've made a list of essential travel tips that will get your Lishui escape started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The secret to having a great travel experience is to plan ahead. So, let's start with the basics: passport, boarding pass, bank cards and daily medications. Next, take on board items that'll help pass the time, like some electronic gadgets or a thrilling novel. It's also smart to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones. And of course, don't forget to pop in toiletries like a toothbrush, lip balm and a clean T-shirt.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of banned items can differ between airlines, the general rule to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, blades, fireworks and fuel. Sporting equipment like ski poles, and items that could harm passengers, such as pepper spray and firearms, won't be allowed on board either.
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort really should be your highest priority when selecting what to wear on your flight. Consider your footwear carefully too, as swollen feet are quite common. Roomy, closed-toed shoes are always a sensible way to go.
- Caused by sustained periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers during long-haul flights. The great news is there are ways to reduce your risk of developing it. Stay hydrated, get up and wander the aisles as much as possible and wear compression socks or tights.
