Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Kannuskoski could be a piece of cake or it could go on forever. We've put together some useful tips that will help you start your next great adventure on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The secret to having an amazing travel experience is to pack in advance. So, let's start with the basics: passport, boarding pass, cash and important medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you busy, like some electronic gadgets or a good book. It's also a wise idea to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. And of course, be sure to toss in toiletry items like a toothbrush, lip balm and a fresh change of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Sharp objects, like your beloved Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and strong acids, are also not allowed.
What to wear on a flight:
- The main aim is to feel as comfortable as you can. Layer up with loose, breathable clothing and pack a cardigan in case it gets chilly in the cabin. Always opt for well-fitting, flat shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell during the journey. Leave the high heels and heavy boots in your main luggage.
- A serious condition known as DVT (deep vein thrombosis) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clotting due to poor circulation and inactivity. Doing leg and foot exercises while seated helps to prevent this from occurring. Wearing a quality pair of compression tights or socks may also help.
