Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Almens could be completely painless or it could go on forever. We've compiled some useful travel tips that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Firstly, and most importantly, pack your passport, official ID, credit cards and daily medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling novel and a phone crammed with your favorite movies are some wonderful options. If you hope to catch a few z's, a comfy neck pillow and some earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, leave some space for a toothbrush and some facial wipes to ensure you hop off the plane looking and feeling fresh.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Sharp or pointed objects, like a pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, chemicals agents and gasoline, are also restricted.
What to wear on a flight:
- The key to a comfortable flight is as simple as the clothes you wear. Prepare for temperature changes by bringing layers. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin gets chilly. Shoes like sandals and heels are best left for other occasions. Instead, go for flat, closed-toed footwear like slip-ons. Your feet will thank you for it.
- Unfortunately, a risk of long-haul flights is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged inactivity. To prevent this, make the most of every opportunity to walk around the cabin and stretch your legs. Compression socks and tights are also a great idea to help lower your risk.
