Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Iyara could be a breeze or it could drag on forever. Here are some handy hints that will help you start your next big adventure on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- It's easy — first, pack your passport, travel docs, bank cards and vital medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to while away the time. A juicy book and a laptop crammed with your favorite shows are some fantastic options. If you intend to take a short snooze, a neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, make room for a few toiletry items so you'll step off the plane feeling fresh and raring to go.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of banned items differs between airlines, the general rule to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, blades, fuel and fireworks. Sporting equipment like baseball bats, and items that could harm passengers, such as swords and batons, can't come on board with you either.
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort really should be your highest priority when choosing what to wear during your flight. Consider your footwear choice with care too, as swollen ankles and feet are a common side effect of flying. Shoes which are flat and slightly roomy are always a good idea.
- Most travelers have heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by reduced mobility or inactivity. There's plenty you can do to reduce your risk. Wear compression tights or socks, drink lots of water and keep your legs and feet moving. Walk the aisles of the cabin or perform some stretches in your seat.
