- Flying can be a pleasure if you take the right gear. First things first, you'll need toiletry items, such as lip balm and hand cream, a spare change of clothes and something to read. Next, find a spot in your carry-on bag for your electronic gadgets, chargers, medications and perhaps a neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, be sure to take your passport, travel documents and some cash.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Pointed or sharp objects, like a pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, flares and fuels, are also not allowed.
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort should be your main priority when deciding what to wear on your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a smart choice, as are roomy, closed-toe shoes.
- The result of sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers on long-distance flights. Reduce the risks by staying hydrated, keeping your lower limbs moving and wearing compression socks to help your circulation.
