Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Bolʼshoy Fontan could be as easy as pie or it could go on forever. We've put together some useful travel tips that will help you start your unforgettable escape on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Firstly, and most importantly, put in your passport, travel docs, cash and medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy book and a laptop filled with your favorite movies are some wonderful options. If you plan to catch forty winks, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones will also be useful. Finally, make room for a few toiletry items to ensure you arrive feeling fresh as a daisy.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of prohibited items differs between airlines, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like box cutters, razor blades, spray paint and fireworks. Sporting equipment like bows and arrows, and items that could harm other people, such as pepper spray and guns, aren't allowed in the cabin either.
What to wear on a flight:
- The aisles of a plane are no fashion runway. Wear comfortable clothes and pack a cardigan as the temperature can drop inside the cabin. Flat, enclosed shoes are always a good idea too.
- Most travelers have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by reduced mobility or inactivity. There are many ways to lessen your risk. Wear compression tights or socks, drink lots of water and keep your legs and feet moving. Do a lap or two of the cabin or try out some exercises in your seat.
