We’ve got the lowdown on how to make your flight a pleasant experience. Follow our insider tips and you’ll be hightailing it through the airport and seeing the best of Vasteras in next to no time.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The secret to having a stress-free travel experience is to plan ahead. So, let’s start with the essentials: passport, official ID, cash and vital medications. Next, bring on board items that’ll help keep you occupied, like some electronic devices or a few magazines. It’s also a wise idea to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. Last but not least, don’t forget to toss in toiletries like a toothbrush, deodorant and a spare set of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Leave all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3null4 ounces (100 milliliters) won’t be allowed on. Sharp objects, like your precious pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, chemicals agents and fuels, are also restricted.
What to wear on a flight:
- Your number one priority is to be as comfortable as possible. Don layers of natural fibers and pack a pullover just in case you get cold. Pick a pair of flat, well-fitting shoes as it’s possible that your feet and ankles will swell a little during the journey. Leave the high heels and heavy boots in your checked baggage.
- A serious condition by the name of DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a risk on long-haul flights. It’s the result of blood clotting due to poor circulation and inactivity. Doing regular leg and foot exercises in your seat is a great way to prevent this occurring. Wearing a good pair of compression socks is also a wise idea.
