Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Rock Hill could be a piece of cake or it could go on forever. We've rounded up some tips that will help you start your unforgettable escape on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- First and foremost, pack your passport, official ID, cash and medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy book and a tablet crammed with your favourite shows are some great options. If you plan to catch more than just forty winks, a comfy neck pillow and some noise-cancelling headphones will also be useful. Finally, leave space for a few toiletry items so you'll touchdown looking and feeling fresh.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of prohibited items differs between air carriers, the general guide to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, knives, spray paint and flares. Sporting equipment like baseball bats, and objects that could harm other people, such as pepper spray and firearms, can't come on board with you either.
What to wear on a flight:
- The aisles of an aircraft are not the place for a fashion parade. Don comfortable layers and take a sweater as the temperature can drop in the cabin during long-haul flights. Closed-toed, flat shoes are also a sensible choice.
- A condition by the name of DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a potential risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to poor circulation. Doing regular leg and foot exercises while seated is a great way to prevent this developing. Wearing a good pair of compression tights or socks also helps reduce your risk.
