Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you've prepared well. Follow these handy tips that will help get your Malcesine escape started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- A plane trip can be a pleasure if you bring the right things. First of all you'll need basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a spare change of clothes and a few magazines. Secondly, leave space in your bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, any medications and maybe a blow-up neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, be sure to bring your passport, travel docs and some money.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Pack all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated. Sharp objects, like your pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, flares and matches, are also prohibited.
What to wear on a flight:
- Choose comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes by dressing in layers, and pick flat, enclosed footwear like slip-ons.
- The result of sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers during long-haul flights. Reduce the risks by staying hydrated, keeping your legs and feet moving and wearing compression tights or socks.
