No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you're well organised. We've compiled a list of handy hints that will help get your Nafplio holiday started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- A plane trip can be a comfortable experience if you take the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want some toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a clean pair of socks and a magazine or two. Next, make room in your hand luggage for your phone, tablet and chargers, your important medications and perhaps a comfy neck pillow too. Lastly, be sure to bring your passport, travel documents and some money.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of banned items can differ between airlines, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes box cutters, razor blades, fuel and fireworks. Sports equipment like ski poles, and items that could harm other people, such as swords and batons, are also banned from the cabin.
What to wear on a flight:
- Your main aim is to feel as comfortable as you can. Choose shoes that are easy to slip on and off, dress in loose, natural-fibre clothing and remember to bring a jacket in case you get cold in the cabin.
- Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clotting due to poor circulation, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks or tights.
