We've rounded up all the info you need to make your flight a stress-free experience. Follow our tips and tricks and you'll be breezing through airport security and seeing the best of Glomel in no time at all. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- First, pack in your passport, important documents, credit cards and vital medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling novel and a tablet crammed with your favorite movies are some terrific options. If you plan to catch up on some sleep, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also be useful. Finally, leave some space for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes to ensure you touchdown feeling fresh and ready to go.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Leave all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Pointed or sharp objects, like your precious Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as spray paint, flares and poisons, are also banned.
What to wear on a flight:
- Your top priority is to be as comfortable as you can. Pick shoes that are easy to slip on and off, dress in loose, natural fibers and remember to take a pullover in case you get cold in the cabin.
- Most travelers have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To lower your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression tights or socks and move your legs and feet often.
