Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a seamless experience if you're well organised. We've made a list of top travel tips that will help get your Sigsig holiday started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- First of all, put in your passport, official ID, bank cards and vital medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling novel and a tablet filled with your favourite movies are some fantastic options. If you intend to take a quick nap, a comfy neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, leave space for a toothbrush and some facial wipes to ensure you touchdown looking fresh and ready to go.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) won't be allowed on. Sharp objects, like your beloved pocket knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and matches, are also not allowed.
What to wear on a flight:
- The aisles of an airplane are no place for a fashion parade. Dress in comfortable layers and choose shoes that are closed-toe, flat and easy to slip on and off.
- The result of sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers during long flights. Lower your risks by drinking water, keeping your legs and ankles moving and wearing compression socks to help improve your circulation.
