Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Aren could be completely stress-free or it could drag on forever. We've pulled together some useful travel tips that will help you start your next great adventure on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- First of all, put in your passport, travel docs, cash and daily medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy novel and a phone crammed with your favorite movies are good options. If you intend to take a short nap, a comfy neck pillow and some noise-canceling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some facial wipes so you'll hop off the plane looking fresh and raring to go.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of restricted items differs between airlines, the general rule to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, pocket knives, spray paint and fireworks. Sporting equipment like bows and arrows, and objects that could injure passengers, such as pepper spray and firearms, won't be allowed on board either.
What to wear on a flight:
- The aisles of an airplane aren't the place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfortable clothing and opt for shoes that are enclosed, flat and easy to pull on and off.
- You're probably aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of inactivity. To lower your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression socks or tights and keep your legs and feet moving.
