If you're poorly prepared, travelling can be a real challenge. But there's no need to hit the panic button just yet. Follow these handy tips for a worry-free start to your getaway in Sandy Point. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Travelling on a plane can be a pleasure if you've got all the right things. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a fresh set of clothes and a magazine or two. Secondly, leave space in your carry-on bag for your mobile phone, a charger, your medications and perhaps a neck pillow too. Lastly, be sure to bring your passport, travel docs and your credit cards.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Double-check that you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) hiding in one of the zippers of your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable substances, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort should be your number one priority when deciding what to wear on your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a wise option, as are enclosed shoes like sneakers.
- Caused by sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers on long-distance flights. Reduce the risks by staying hydrated, keeping your ankles and legs moving and wearing compression tights or socks.
