Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a seamless experience if you're well organised. Check out these essential travel tips that will get your Wadebridge holiday started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Firstly, and most importantly, pack in your passport, official ID, wallet and daily medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy book and a laptop filled with your favourite movies are good options. If you plan to take a quick snooze, a neck pillow and some earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some deodorant so you'll arrive looking fresh and raring to go.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Check carefully that you don't have a Swiss Army knife lurking in one of the compartments of your hand luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive substances, such as fuel and fireworks, 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 feel as comfortable as you can. Layer up in breathable clothing and remember to pack a pullover just in case you get chilly. Pick a pair of flat, well-fitting shoes as your feet may swell a little during the flight. Leave the stilettos and hiking boots in your luggage.
- Caused by sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a condition that can affect passengers on long-distance flights. But the good news is there are proven ways to reduce your risk of developing it. Keep your fluids up, walk around the cabin as often as you can and wear compression tights or socks.
