- Traveling on a plane can be a cruisy experience if you bring the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want a few basic toiletries, such as lip balm and hand cream, a spare pair of socks and a good book. Secondly, find room in your hand luggage for your electronic gadgets, chargers, any daily medications and maybe a neck pillow as well. Lastly, don't forget to take your passport, travel docs and your bank cards.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Sharp or pointed objects, like your precious pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, bleaching agents and gasoline, are also not allowed.
What to wear on a flight:
- The key to a comfortable flight is often as simple as your choice of clothing. Prepare yourself for varying temperatures by layering up. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin gets chilly. Shoes like high heels and sandals are best left for other occasions. Even though they may be your favorites, go for flat, closed-toed footwear like slip-ons. Your feet will appreciate it.
- Most travelers are aware of DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by reduced mobility or inactivity. There's plenty you can do to minimize your risk. Wear compression tights or socks, stay well hydrated and remember to keep your legs and feet moving. Do a few laps of the cabin or perform some simple exercises in your seat.
