No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you've prepared well. We've made a list of essential travel tips that will get your Sari-Solenzara holiday started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- First things first, pack in your passport, important documents, cash and vital medications. Next, you'll need some in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A juicy book and a laptop crammed with your favourite movies are some fantastic options. If you intend to take a short snooze, a quality neck pillow and some earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, make room for a few toiletry items to ensure you touchdown feeling fresh and raring to go.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Make sure you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) lurking in your hand luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive products, such as fuel and matches, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3null4 ounces (100 milliliters).
What to wear on a flight:
- The long, narrow aisles of an airplane are no fashion runway. Don comfortable layers and take a cardigan as it can get chilly inside the cabin on long-haul flights. Slightly roomy, flat shoes are also a wise idea.
- Unfortunately, a risk of long-distance flying is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by extended periods of inactivity. To prevent this from happening, make the most of every opportunity to walk around the cabin and stretch your legs. Compression tights and socks are another simple way to help lower your risk.
