Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a seamless experience if you're well organised. We've made a list of handy hints that will help get your Teulada holiday started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The trick to having a worry-free flight experience is to be prepared. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, official ID, credit cards and important medications. Next, take on board items that'll help while away those hours, like some electronic gadgets or a few magazines. It's also wise to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-cancelling headphones. And of course, don't forget to squeeze in toiletry items like a toothbrush, deodorant and a clean set of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) won't be allowed on. Sharp or pointed objects, like a Swiss Army knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, chemicals agents and strong acids, are also restricted.
What to wear on a flight:
- You'll want to go for comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes in the cabin by donning layers, and opt for slightly roomy, flat footwear like slip-ons.
- Caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers on long-distance flights. Reduce the risks by staying hydrated, keeping your ankles and legs moving and wearing compression socks or tights.
