We've rounded up all the info you need to make your flight a pleasant experience. Follow our tips and you'll be breezing through the airport and having a blast in Crawford in no time at all. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- First things first, put in your passport, important documents, wallet and medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A thrilling novel and a laptop filled with your favorite movies are some fantastic options. If you plan to take a quick snooze, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, squeeze in a toothbrush and some facial wipes so you'll touchdown feeling fresh and ready to go.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Sharp objects, like your treasured pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as spray paint, flares and fireworks, are also not allowed.
What to wear on a flight:
- The aisles of an airplane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer your clothing and pick shoes that are flat, enclosed and easy to take on and off.
- The result of sustained periods of immobility, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers during long-haul flights. Lower your risks by staying hydrated, keeping your legs and feet moving and wearing compression socks or tights.
