Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a seamless experience if you've planned ahead. We've made a list of handy tips and tricks that will help get your Root holiday started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The trick to having a stress-free flight experience is to pack ahead. Start with the essentials: passport, travel documents, credit cards and daily medications. Next, take on board items that'll help pass the time, like some electronic devices or a juicy novel. It's also smart to pack your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones. Finally, don't forget to pop in toiletries like a toothbrush, deodorant and a fresh set of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Double-check that you don't have sharp or pointed objects lurking in your hand luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive goods, such as fuel and matches, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3null4 ounces (100 milliliters).
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort should always be the goal when selecting what to wear during your flight. Consider your choice of footwear with care too, as swollen feet are a common occurrence. Roomy, closed-toed shoes work well.
- Caused by sustained periods of immobility, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers during long flights. But the good news is there are numerous ways to reduce the risk of developing it. Stay hydrated, get up and walk around the cabin wherever possible and wear compression socks or tights.
