If you're poorly prepared, traveling can be challenging. But there's no need to hit the panic button just yet. Follow these useful tips for a stress-free start to your getaway in Ayr.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- First, pack in your passport, travel documents, cash and medications. Next, you'll want some extra in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling novel and a phone filled with your favorite shows are some wonderful options. If you plan to take a quick snooze, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some facial wipes to ensure you arrive feeling fresh and raring to go.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of prohibited items differs between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes box cutters, razor blades, fuel and fireworks. Sports equipment like hockey sticks, and objects that could injure passengers, such as swords and guns, won't be allowed on board either.
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort really should be your prime concern when selecting what to wear on your flight. Consider your choice of footwear with care too, as swelling of the feet and ankles are a common occurrence. Slightly roomy, flat shoes work well.
- You've probably heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of sitting. There are plenty of ways to minimize your risk. Wear a pair of compression socks or tights, drink lots of water often and move your legs and feet. Walk around the cabin when possible or perform some simple exercises in your seat.
