If you're poorly prepared, airports and flying can be overwhelming. But there's no need to worry. Follow these handy tips and enjoy a pain-free start to your holiday in Wismar.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The trick to having an amazing travel experience is to be prepared. So, let's start with the basics: passport, travel documents, bank cards and important medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you entertained, like some electronic devices or a good book. It's also wise to pack your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Last but not least, be sure to pop in toiletries like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a spare set of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3null4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Pointed or sharp objects, like a pocket knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, chemicals agents and gasoline, are also banned.
What to wear on a flight:
- Your aim here is to be as comfortable as you can. Dress in loose, natural fibers and remember to bring a jacket in case it gets chilly in the cabin. Pick well-fitting, flat shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell a little during the journey. Leave the stilettos and chunky boots in your checked luggage.
- The result of sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers during long flights. The great news is there are numerous ways to reduce the risk of developing it. Stay hydrated, wander through the cabin whenever possible and wear compression socks or tights.
