Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you're well organised. Follow these handy tips that will help get your Bauska Municipality holiday started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Firstly, and most importantly, pack your passport, travel docs, wallet and daily medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling book and a tablet crammed with your favourite shows are always good options. If you plan to take a quick snooze, a comfy neck pillow and some earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, make room for a few toiletry items to ensure you hop off the plane looking fresh and raring to go.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3null4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Pointed or sharp objects, like a pocket knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, flares and fuels, are also banned.
What to wear on a flight:
- Your goal here is to feel as comfortable as possible. Layer up with loose, breathable clothing and remember to bring a cardigan in case it gets cool in the cabin. Pick a pair of flat, slightly roomy 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 serious condition by the name of DVT (deep vein thrombosis) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to poor circulation. Walking up and down the aisle and doing foot and leg exercises in your seat is a great way to prevent this happening. Wearing a good-quality pair of compression tights or socks is also a wise idea.
