Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Mitchell could be simple and straightforward or it could drag on forever. We've pulled together some tips that will help you start your next big adventure on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- A plane trip can be a cruisy experience if you bring the right gear. First of all you'll need basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and some deodorant, a clean set of clothes and a good read. Next, leave space in your bag for your laptop, a charger, your medications and maybe a blow-up neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to take your passport, travel docs and your bank cards.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3null4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Sharp objects, like your trusty Swiss Army knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, flares and poisons, are also not allowed.
What to wear on a flight:
- Your number one priority is to make yourself as comfortable as possible. Layer up with loose, natural fibers and take a jacket in case it gets cool in the cabin. Always go with flat, well-fitting shoes as your feet may swell during the flight. Leave the stilettos and heavy hiking boots in your main luggage.
- Caused by sustained periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a condition that can affect passengers on long-haul flights. But the good news is there are ways to lower your risk of developing it. Stay hydrated, walk up and down the aisles as often as possible and wear compression tights or socks.
