Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you're well organised. Follow these handy travel tips that will get your Tomaszow Lubelski escape started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- First things first, pack in your passport, travel documents, cash and medications. Next, you'll want some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy book and a laptop filled with your favourite shows are some wonderful options. If you hope to take a quick nap, a neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes to ensure you hop off the plane looking fresh and raring to go.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of restricted items differs between airlines, the general rule to follow is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, pocket knives, aerosol cans and flares. Sporting equipment like golf clubs, and objects that could injure passengers, such as swords and batons, aren't allowed in the cabin either.
What to wear on a flight:
- The goal here is to feel as comfortable as possible. Layer up in natural-fibre clothing and pack a jacket just in case you get chilly. Pick a pair of flat, slightly roomy shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell a little during the flight. Leave the stilettos and chunky boots in your main luggage.
- The result of lengthy periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a condition that can affect some passengers on long-distance flights. But the great news is there are numerous ways to significantly reduce your risk of developing it. Keep your fluids up, get up and wander the aisles as often as possible and wear compression tights or socks.
