If you're poorly prepared, airports and flying can be a real challenge. But there's no need to panic. Follow these useful tips and enjoy a hassle-free start to your getaway in Bellariva. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The secret to having a great travel experience is to pack in advance. First up, the essentials: passport, boarding pass, cash and important medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help pass the time, like some electronic devices or a magazine. 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 toiletries like a toothbrush, lip balm and a fresh set of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Pack all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Sharp or pointed objects, like your precious Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as spray paint, flares and gasoline, are also prohibited.
What to wear on a flight:
- Your main priority is to feel as comfortable as you can. Go for flat, closed-toe shoes, dress in loose, natural fibers and remember to bring a pullover in case you get cold in the cabin.
- The result of sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers during long-haul flights. Reduce the risks by drinking water, keeping your ankles and legs moving and wearing compression socks or tights.
