- A plane trip can be easy if you bring the right things. Firstly, you'll want a few toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a fresh change of clothes and a good read. Secondly, make room in your carry-on bag for your phone and charger, your medications and perhaps a blow-up neck pillow as well. Lastly, be sure to take your passport, travel papers and some money.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of prohibited items can differ between airlines, the general guide to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, pocket knives, spray paint and flares. Sports equipment like baseball bats, and items that could harm other people, such as firearms and ammunition, aren't allowed in the cabin either.
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort should be your number one priority when deciding what to wear on board. Loose, breathable clothing is a sensible choice, as are roomy, closed-toe shoes.
- Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-distance flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to poor circulation and inactivity, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks.
