Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you're well organised. Check out these top travel tips that will help get your Noblesville holiday started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The secret to having a pain-free travel experience is to be prepared. Start with the essentials: passport, travel docs, credit cards and daily medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help while away those hours, like your laptop or a good read. It's also wise to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones. And of course, be sure to squeeze in toiletry items like a toothbrush, lip balm and a spare change of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3null4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Sharp objects, like your pocket knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, bleaching agents and fuels, are also restricted.
What to wear on a flight:
- The main aim is to be as comfortable as you can. Layer up with loose, breathable clothing and pack a pullover in case it gets cold in the cabin. Always go with roomy, flat shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell during the flight. Leave the stilettos and heavy boots in your checked luggage.
- Unfortunately, one risk of flying long distances is developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged inactivity. To prevent this, make the most of every opportunity to walk around the cabin and stretch your legs. Compression socks and tights are also a great idea to help minimize this risk.
