If you're poorly prepared, travelling can be daunting. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these handy tips and enjoy a worry-free start to your holiday in Razlog.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- A plane ride can be a cruisy experience if you pack the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want a few basic toiletries, such as lip balm and hand cream, a spare pair of socks and a magazine or two. Secondly, find a spot in your carry-on bag for your mobile phone, a charger, any vital medications and maybe a proper neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget to take your passport, travel documents and your credit cards.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of banned items differs between airlines, the general rule to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like knives, scissors, aerosol cans and flares. Sports equipment like baseball bats, and objects that could harm passengers, such as firearms and swords, won't be allowed on board either.
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort really should be your priority when choosing what to wear on your flight. Consider your footwear with care too, as swollen ankles and feet can be a side effect of flying. Flat shoes which are slightly roomy are always a sensible way to go.
- A condition known as DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clots forming due to poor circulation and inactivity. Doing regular leg and foot exercises while seated is a great way to prevent this happening. Wearing a good pair of compression socks also helps reduce the risk.
