We've rounded up all the info you need to make your flight as enjoyable as possible. Follow our tips and you'll be zooming through airport security and exploring Kefermarkt before you know it.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Traveling on a plane can be a cruisy experience if you take the right gear. First things first, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a spare set of clothes and something to read. Secondly, find room in your hand luggage for your laptop, a charger, medications and perhaps a neck pillow too. Lastly, be sure to take your passport, travel documents and your bank cards.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of restricted items differs between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, knives, aerosol cans and flares. Sporting equipment like hockey sticks, and items that could harm passengers, such as guns and swords, won't be allowed on board either.
What to wear on a flight:
- The aisles of your aircraft are no fashion runway. Don comfortable layers and remember to take a sweater as it can get quite cool inside the cabin. Flat, enclosed shoes are also a sensible choice.
- Most travelers are aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. There's plenty you can do to reduce your risk. Wear a pair of compression tights or socks, drink lots of water often and remember to keep your legs and feet moving. Do a few laps of the cabin or perform some stretches in your seat.
