Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you're well organised. We've compiled a list of essential travel tips that will get your Mühlhausen/Thüringen holiday started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The trick to having a worry-free travel experience is to be prepared. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, travel docs, bank cards and any vital medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you entertained, like your laptop or a juicy novel. It's also smart to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. And of course, be sure to chuck in toiletry items like a toothbrush, lip balm and a spare set of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Check carefully that you don't have sharp or pointed objects hiding in one of the compartments of your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable products, such as fuel and fireworks, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).
What to wear on a flight:
- The aisles of an aircraft are no place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfy clothing and choose shoes that are flat, roomy and easy to take on and off.
- Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Wander around the cabin and stretch your legs or do some simple exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.
