No matter where you're coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you're well organised. Take a peek at these handy tips and tricks that will help get your Sacele holiday started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The trick to having an awesome travel experience is to plan ahead. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, boarding pass, credit cards and daily medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you entertained, like some electronic gadgets or a few magazines. It's also smart to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Last but not least, be sure to chuck in toiletries like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a spare set of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of prohibited items differs between air carriers, the general rule to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, pocket knives, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sporting equipment like hockey sticks, and objects that could injure passengers, such as firearms and swords, can't come on board with you either.
What to wear on a flight:
- The aisles of an aircraft are no place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfortable clothing and don't forget to bring a cardigan as it can get chilly inside the cabin. Flat, enclosed shoes are also a wise idea.
- The result of sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a serious condition that can affect some passengers during long-haul flights. But the great news is there are proven ways to lower your risk of developing it. Stay hydrated, get up and wander the aisles as often as you can and wear compression tights or socks.
