Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you've planned ahead. We've put together a list of essential travel tips that will get your Lucenec escape started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Flying can be a stress-free experience if you pack the right things. First of all you'll need basic toiletries, such as deodorant, toothpaste and a toothbrush, a clean pair of socks and a magazine or two. Secondly, make room in your bag for your mobile phone, a charger, any vital medications and perhaps a comfy neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, remember to bring your passport, travel papers and your credit cards.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of prohibited items can differ between airlines, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like knives, scissors, fuel and fireworks. Sporting equipment like ski poles, and items that could harm passengers, such as swords and guns, aren't allowed in the cabin 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 pack a jacket in case it gets chilly in the cabin. Go for a pair of roomy, flat shoes as your feet may swell a little during the flight. Leave the high heels and chunky boots in your checked baggage.
- The result of lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a condition that can affect some passengers during long-haul flights. But the great news is there are numerous ways to lower your risk of developing it. Stay well hydrated, wander through the cabin as often as you can and wear compression socks or tights.
