If you're poorly prepared, travelling can be a real challenge. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these handy hints and enjoy a worry-free start to your time in Zionville.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- A plane ride can be a pleasure if you carry the right stuff. First of all you'll need basic toiletry items, such as toothpaste, a toothbrush and some deodorant, a spare change of clothes and a good read. Secondly, make room in your bag for your laptop, a charger, your important medications and perhaps a quality neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, be sure 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 a Swiss Army knife hiding in your hand luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive substances, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3null4 ounces (100 milliliters).
What to wear on a flight:
- The main aim is to feel as comfortable as you can. Dress in loose, natural fibers and bring a sweater in case it gets cold in the cabin. Opt for flat, well-fitting shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell during the flight. Leave the stilettos and heavy boots in your luggage.
- Unfortunately, a risk of flying long distances is developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity. To prevent this, make the most of every opportunity to wander around the cabin. Compression tights and socks are another easy way to help minimize this risk.
