Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you're well prepared. Take a peek at these handy travel tips that will get your Kosakowo escape started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Flying can be a cruisy experience if you take the right gear. First things first, you'll need basic toiletries, such as lip balm and hand cream, a spare set of clothes and a good book. Next, leave space in your carry-on bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, any medications and perhaps a comfy neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget to take your passport, travel papers and your bank cards.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of prohibited items can differ between air carriers, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, knives, spray paint and fireworks. Sports equipment like golf clubs, and items that could harm passengers, such as firearms and swords, aren't allowed in the cabin either.
What to wear on a flight:
- Your number one priority is to make yourself as comfortable as possible. Don layers of natural fibers and take a pullover in case it gets chilly in the cabin. Pick a pair of well-fitting, flat shoes as your feet may swell a little during the journey. Leave the high heels and heavy boots in your main luggage.
- The condition known as DVT (deep vein thrombosis) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to poor circulation and inactivity. Walking up and down the aisle and doing foot and leg exercises in your seat is a great way to prevent this developing. Wearing a good-quality pair of compression tights or socks can also help.
