We've rounded up all the info you need to make your flight an enjoyable experience. Follow our top tips and you'll be cruising through the airport and enjoying Decatur in next to no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- A plane ride can be a comfortable experience if you carry the right gear. First things first, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as toothpaste, a toothbrush and some deodorant, a clean pair of socks and a few magazines. Secondly, make room in your hand luggage for your electronic gadgets, chargers, any daily medications and maybe a comfy neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget to take your passport, travel documents and your bank cards.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Make sure you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) hiding in one of the zippers of your carry-on luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive substances, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort should be your top priority when deciding what to wear during your flight. Loose clothing is a sensible option, as are flat, slightly roomy shoes.
- Most of us have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To lessen your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression socks and move your lower limbs often.
