Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Deer Park could be a breeze or it could drag on forever. We've rounded up some handy tips that will help you start your unforgettable escape on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The secret to having an awesome flight experience is to pack ahead. So, let's start with the basics: passport, travel documents, cash and daily medications. Next, bring items that'll help pass the time, like some electronic gadgets or a few magazines. It's also a wise idea to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of headphones. And of course, be sure to pop in toiletry items like a toothbrush, lip balm and a fresh change of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of prohibited items differs between air carriers, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, pocket knives, fireworks and fuel. Sporting equipment like hockey sticks, and items that could harm passengers, such as swords and batons, are also banned from the cabin.
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort should be your main priority when deciding what to wear during your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a smart option, as are flat, closed-toe shoes.
- You've probably heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of inactivity. To minimize your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression socks and keep your feet and legs moving.
