Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a seamless experience if you're well organised. Follow these handy travel tips that will get your Tyre holiday started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The trick to having a worry-free flight experience is to pack in advance. So, let's start with the basics: passport, official ID, credit cards and important medications. Next, bring items that'll help while away those hours, like some electronic gadgets or a few magazines. You'll also want to pack your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. And of course, don't forget to toss in toiletries like a toothbrush, lip balm and a fresh change of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Check carefully that you don't have a sharp object lurking in the bottom of your hand luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable substances, such as fuel and fireworks, and gels and liquids 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 carefully too, as swollen ankles and feet are a common occurrence. Roomy, closed-toed shoes are always a good idea.
- A serious condition by the name of DVT (deep vein thrombosis) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to inactivity and poor circulation. Walking up and down the aisle and doing foot and leg exercises in your seat helps to prevent this developing. Wearing a pair of compression tights or socks also helps reduce your risk.
