Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Bloomfield could be no sweat at all or it could go on forever. We've compiled some handy travel tips that will help you start your unforgettable escape on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- First of all, put in your passport, travel docs, cash and medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling novel and a laptop filled with your favorite shows are some fantastic options. If you intend to catch forty winks, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, leave space for a toothbrush and some deodorant so you'll touchdown feeling fresh and raring to go.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Double-check that you don't have a Swiss Army knife lurking in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive products, such as bleach and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).
What to wear on a flight:
- The long, narrow aisles of an airplane are not the place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfortable clothing and pack a sweater as it tends to get cool in the cabin on long-haul flights. Enclosed, flat shoes are always a good choice too.
- The result of lengthy periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a serious condition that can affect some passengers during long flights. The good news is there are proven ways to lower your risk of developing it. Stay hydrated, walk up and down the aisles wherever possible and wear compression socks or tights.
