Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Baldwin could be completely painless or it could drag on forever. We've pulled together some handy tips that will help you start your unforgettable escape on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The trick to having a pain-free travel experience is to pack ahead. Start with the essentials: passport, travel docs, cash and vital medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you occupied, like your laptop or a few magazines. It's also smart to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of headphones. And of course, don't forget to squeeze in toiletries like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a spare change of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Check carefully that you don't have a pocket knife lurking in the bottom of your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable goods, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).
What to wear on a flight:
- Your main aim is to be as comfortable as possible. Opt for slip-on footwear, dress in loose, natural-fiber clothing and don't forget to take a sweater in case it gets chilly in the cabin.
- You've probably heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. To reduce your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression socks or tights and move your legs and feet often.
