If you're not prepared, airports and flying can be overwhelming. But there's no need to worry. Follow these useful tips for a worry-free start to your getaway in Williston.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Flying can be a cruisy experience if you've got all the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want some basic toiletry items, such as toothpaste, a toothbrush and some deodorant, a spare pair of socks and a good novel. Secondly, find room in your hand luggage for your phone and charger, your medications and maybe a blow-up neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, be sure to take your passport, travel documents and some money.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3null4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Pointed or sharp objects, like a Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosols and matches, are also prohibited.
What to wear on a flight:
- The main aim is to make yourself as comfortable as you can. Don layers of breathable clothing and remember to bring a pullover in case it gets cool in the cabin. Pick a pair of well-fitting, flat shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell during the flight. Leave the high heels and heavy hiking boots in your luggage.
- The condition by the name of DVT (deep vein thrombosis) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to poor circulation. Doing leg and foot exercises in your seat helps to prevent this occurring. Wearing a pair of compression socks or tights also helps reduce your risk.
