We've got the lowdown on how to make your journey a pleasant experience. Follow our insider tips and you'll be breezing through airport security and having a blast in Bloodvein in no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- First of all, put in your passport, travel docs, credit cards and daily medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling book and a laptop filled with your favorite shows are some wonderful options. If you hope to catch a few z's, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones will also be useful. Finally, leave space for a few toiletry items so you'll arrive feeling fresh as a daisy.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of prohibited items can differ between air carriers, the general guide to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like tools, metal cutlery, spray paint and fireworks. Sporting equipment like ski poles, and items that could harm other people, such as swords and batons, are also banned from the cabin.
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort should be your priority when choosing what to wear on your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a sensible choice, as are enclosed shoes like sneakers.
- Most of us have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To reduce your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression tights or socks and keep your legs and feet moving.
