Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Elizabethtown could be completely stress-free or it could go on forever. We've pulled together some useful travel tips that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The trick to having an amazing flight experience is to pack in advance. Start with the essentials: passport, official ID, credit cards and daily medications. Next, bring items that'll help keep you occupied, like some electronic devices or a juicy novel. It's also wise to pack your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. And of course, be sure to pop in toiletry items like a toothbrush, lip balm and a spare set of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Pointed or sharp objects, like your trusty pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as spray paint, flares and gasoline, are also not allowed.
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort should be your priority when deciding what to wear on board. Loose, breathable clothing is a wise choice, as are flat, slightly roomy shoes.
- Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to poor circulation and inactivity, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks or tights.
