Wherever you’re coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you’ve prepared well. We’ve made a list of top travel tips that will help get your Riom escape started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Flying can be a cruisy experience if you carry the right stuff. Firstly, you’ll want a few toiletry items, such as lip balm and hand cream, a fresh change of clothes and a good book. Next, make room in your bag for your electronic devices, chargers, any medications and maybe a comfy neck pillow too. Lastly, remember to take your passport, travel papers and some cash.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3null4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Pointed or sharp objects, like your pocket knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, flares and fireworks, are also prohibited.
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort really should be the goal when picking what to wear on board. Consider your choice of footwear with care too, as swollen ankles and feet can be a side effect of flying. Roomy, closed-toed shoes work well.
- A condition known as DVT (deep vein thrombosis) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It results from blood clotting due to inactivity and poor circulation. Walking around the cabin and doing regular leg and foot exercises in your seat is a great way to prevent this from occurring. Wearing a good-quality pair of compression socks or tights can also help.
