Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Friedheim could be completely painless or it could go on forever. Below are some tips that will help you start your next great adventure on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The secret to having a great travel experience is to pack ahead. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, boarding pass, cash and important medications. Next, bring items that'll help pass the time, like your laptop or a good read. It's also wise to pack your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earphones. Finally, be sure to chuck in toiletry items like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a fresh set of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Sharp or pointed objects, like your trusty pocket knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosols and strong acids, are also banned.
What to wear on a flight:
- The goal here is to make yourself as comfortable as you can. Don layers of breathable clothing and take a sweater in case you get cold. Opt for well-fitting, flat shoes as your feet may swell during the journey. Leave the stilettos and heavy hiking boots in your checked luggage.
- Unfortunately, one risk of long-distance flying is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity. To avoid this, make the most of every opportunity to stretch your legs and walk around the cabin. Compression tights and socks are another great idea to help minimize this risk.
