We've pulled together all the info you need to make your journey an enjoyable experience. Follow our tips and you'll be hightailing it through airport security and having a blast in Almagor in next to no time.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- A plane trip can be a cruisy experience if you've got all the right gear. Firstly, you'll want some basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and some deodorant, a spare change of clothes and a magazine or two. Next, make room in your hand luggage for your phone and charger, any vital medications and perhaps a cozy neck pillow too. Lastly, remember to take your passport, travel papers and your bank cards.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Sharp or pointed objects, like your beloved Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as spray paint, flares and fuels, are also not allowed.
What to wear on a flight:
- The aisles of an airplane are not the best place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfy clothing and remember to take a cardigan as it tends to get cool in the cabin on long-haul flights. Flat, enclosed shoes are also a wise idea.
- The result of lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers on long-distance flights. The great news is there are ways to significantly reduce your risk of developing it. Keep your fluids up, get up and wander the aisles as much as you can and wear compression tights or socks.
