Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Aptera could be a piece of cake or it could drag on forever. We've pulled together some handy hints that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Air travel can be a cruisy experience if you carry the right things. Firstly, you'll want a few basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a spare pair of socks and a good book. Secondly, find room in your hand luggage for your mobile phone, a charger, medications and perhaps a quality neck pillow too. Lastly, be sure to take your passport, travel documents and your credit cards.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Check carefully that you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) lurking in your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable products, such as fuel and matches, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).
What to wear on a flight:
- The aisles of an airplane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfortable clothing and go for shoes that are flat, roomy and easy to remove.
- You're probably aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To lower your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression tights or socks and keep your feet and legs moving.
