Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Ashland could be a piece of cake or it could go on forever. We've rounded up some handy tips that will help you start your unforgettable escape on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The secret to having a worry-free flight experience is to pack in advance. So, let's start with the basics: passport, boarding pass, cash and any vital medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help pass the time, like your laptop or a good read. It's also wise to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earphones. Last but not least, don't forget to chuck in toiletry items like a toothbrush, deodorant and a spare set of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Double-check that you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) hiding in your hand luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive goods, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).
What to wear on a flight:
- The long, narrow aisles of a plane are not the place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfortable clothing and remember to bring a sweater as it tends to get cool inside the cabin on long-haul flights. Flat, enclosed shoes are also a good idea.
- The result of sustained periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers on long-distance flights. The great news is there are ways to lower your risk of developing it. Stay hydrated, walk up and down the aisles as much as you can and wear compression socks or tights.
