No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you prepare well enough. Check out these handy tips and tricks that will help get your Bascara escape started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- First things first, pack in your passport, travel docs, cash and daily medications. Next, you'll want some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy book and a phone crammed with your favorite shows are some wonderful options. If you hope to take a short snooze, a neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, leave some space for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes so you'll arrive at your destination feeling fresh and raring to go.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Sharp objects, like your trusty pocket knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, bleaching agents and fuels, are also restricted.
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort really should be your highest priority when picking what to wear on your flight. Consider your footwear carefully too, as swollen feet are a common side effect of flying. Slightly roomy, flat shoes work well.
- Most of us have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. There are many ways to minimize your risk. Wear a good-quality pair of compression socks or tights, drink lots of water often and move your legs and feet. Wander around the cabin or try out some simple stretches in your seat.
