Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you prepare well enough. We've put together a list of handy tips that will get your Fontevivo vacation started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Firstly, and most importantly, pack in your passport, travel docs, cash and vital medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy book and a laptop crammed with your favorite shows are some great options. If you plan to catch a few z's, a neck pillow and some noise-canceling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, leave space for a toothbrush and some deodorant to ensure you hop off the plane feeling fresh as a daisy.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Sharp or pointed objects, like your pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as spray paint, flares and fuels, are also restricted.
What to wear on a flight:
- Choose comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes in the cabin by donning layers, and opt for flat, easy-to-remove footwear like slip-ons.
- Caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers during long-haul flights. Reduce the risks by drinking water, keeping your legs and feet moving and wearing compression socks to help improve your circulation.
