Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Taunton could be as easy as pie or it could go on forever. We've pulled together some tips that will help you start your next great escape on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Flying can be a pleasure if you bring the right things. Firstly, you'll want some toiletry items, such as lip balm and hand cream, a spare pair of socks and a magazine or two. Next, leave space in your hand luggage for your mobile phone, a charger, medications and perhaps a proper neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, don't forget to take your passport, travel papers and some cash.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Double-check that you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) hiding in the bottom of your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive products, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3null4 ounces (100 milliliters).
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort should be your prime concern when deciding what to wear on your flight. Consider your choice of footwear with care too, as swollen ankles and feet are quite common. Shoes which are flat and slightly roomy are always a sensible way to go.
- Most travellers have heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. There are many ways to reduce your risk. Wear a pair of compression tights or socks, drink plenty of water and get your legs and feet moving. Walk the aisles of the cabin or perform exercises in your seat.
