No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you're well prepared. Follow these essential travel tips that will get your Espadanedo vacation started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Flying can be easy if you bring the right gear. Firstly, you'll want a few toiletry items, such as deodorant, toothpaste and a toothbrush, a spare change of clothes and a few magazines. Secondly, find a spot in your hand luggage for your electronic gadgets, chargers, any medications and maybe a cozy neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to take your passport, travel docs and some cash.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of banned items differs between air carriers, the general rule to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like box cutters, razor blades, fireworks and fuel. Sports equipment like ice skates, and items that could injure passengers, such as swords and guns, aren't allowed in the cabin either.
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort should always be your main priority when selecting what to wear on your flight. Consider your footwear choice with care too, as swollen feet and ankles can be a side effect of flying. Flat shoes which are slightly roomy are your best bet.
- Caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a condition that can affect some passengers during long flights. But the good news is there are ways to reduce your risk of developing it. Drink plenty of water, walk around the cabin whenever possible and wear compression tights or socks.
