Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Pixvae could be as easy as pie or it could go on forever. Below are some useful travel tips that will help you start your next great escape on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The trick to having an amazing travel experience is to pack in advance. First up, the essentials: passport, travel docs, cash and important medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help pass the time, like some electronic devices or a magazine. You'll also want to pack your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Finally, be sure to squeeze in toiletries like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a spare change of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of banned items can differ between air carriers, the general guide to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like tools, metal cutlery, fireworks and fuel. Sporting equipment like ice skates, and items that could harm passengers, such as swords and batons, are also banned from the cabin.
What to wear on a flight:
- The aisles of an airplane are no place for a fashion parade. Dress in comfortable layers and choose shoes that are roomy, flat and easy to slip on and off.
- Most of us have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To lower your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression socks or tights and do gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat.
