If you're not prepared, air travel can be tough. But there's no need to hit the panic button just yet. Follow these useful tips for a trouble-free start to your time in Toyohashi.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Air travel can be a stress-free experience if you pack the right things. First of all you'll need toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a spare change of clothes and a few magazines. Secondly, find room in your bag for your laptop, a charger, any daily medications and perhaps a quality neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget to take your passport, travel docs and your credit cards.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3null4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Sharp or pointed objects, like a pocket knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, flares and fuels, are also restricted.
What to wear on a flight:
- The narrow aisles of an aircraft are no fashion runway. Layer up with comfy clothing and remember to take a cardigan as the temperature can drop in the cabin. Flat, enclosed shoes are also a good choice.
- Most of us have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by reduced mobility or inactivity. There's plenty you can do to lessen your risk. Wear compression socks, drink lots of water and keep your legs and feet moving. Walk around the cabin when possible or try out some exercises in your seat.
