If you're not prepared, airports and flying can be tough. But there's no need to panic. Follow these helpful hints for a pleasant start to your holiday in Vidoy Island.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- A plane ride can be a stress-free experience if you carry the right things. Firstly, you'll want some basic toiletry items, such as deodorant, toothpaste and a toothbrush, a spare set of clothes and a good read. Secondly, leave space in your hand luggage for your phone, tablet and chargers, any medications and perhaps a cosy neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, remember to bring your passport, travel papers and some money.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Double-check that you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) lurking in the bottom of your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive substances, such as bleach and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3null4 ounces (100 milliliters).
What to wear on a flight:
- Your number one priority is to be as comfortable as possible. Layer yourself up in breathable clothing and remember to pack a sweater in case it gets cool in the cabin. Opt for flat, well-fitting shoes as your feet may swell a little during the journey. Leave the high heels and hiking boots in your checked luggage.
- It's likely you've heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of inactivity. There are plenty of ways to mitigate your risk. Wear a good-quality pair of compression socks, stay well hydrated and move your legs and feet. Do a few laps of the cabin or perform some simple exercises in your seat.
