Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Roswell could be a piece of cake or it could go on forever. We've rounded up some handy travel tips that will help you start your next great adventure on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Air travel can be easy if you carry the right things. Firstly, you'll want some toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a fresh set of clothes and a magazine or two. Secondly, leave space in your hand luggage for your electronic devices, chargers, any vital medications and perhaps a quality neck pillow too. Lastly, don't forget to take your passport, travel docs and your bank cards.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of prohibited items differs between airlines, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, pocket knives, aerosol cans and flares. Sports equipment like hockey sticks, and objects that could harm other people, such as firearms and ammunition, are also banned from the cabin.
What to wear on a flight:
- The aisles of an aircraft aren't the place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfortable clothing and opt for shoes that are flat, roomy and easy to slip on and off.
- Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by extended periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Wander around the cabin and stretch your legs or do some gentle exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.
