We've pulled together all the info you need to make your flight as pain-free as possible. Follow our tips and tricks and you'll be breezing through airport security and exploring Orhangazi in no time flat. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Flying can be a pleasure if you carry the right things. Firstly, you'll want a few basic toiletries, such as deodorant, toothpaste and a toothbrush, a clean pair of socks and something to read. Secondly, make room in your carry-on bag for your mobile phone, a charger, your medications and maybe a cosy neck pillow as well. Lastly, don't forget to bring your passport, travel papers and some money.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of restricted items differs between air carriers, the general guide to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, drills, spray paint and fireworks. Sporting equipment like golf clubs, and items that could injure passengers, such as firearms and ammunition, are also banned from the cabin.
What to wear on a flight:
- Your aim here is to feel as comfortable as possible. Choose slip-on footwear, dress in loose, natural-fibre clothing and remember to bring a jacket in case you get cold in the cabin.
- It's likely you've heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of inactivity. To lower your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression socks or tights and keep your legs and feet moving.
