Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you've prepared well. Take a peek at these handy tips and tricks that will get your Landfjarden vacation started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Traveling on a plane can be easy if you've got all the right stuff. Firstly, you'll need toiletry items, such as deodorant, toothpaste and a toothbrush, a fresh set of clothes and a magazine or two. Next, leave space in your carry-on bag for your mobile phone, a charger, your important medications and maybe a quality neck pillow as well. Lastly, don't forget to bring your passport, travel papers and some cash.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of banned items differs between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, blades, fuel and fireworks. Sports equipment like golf clubs, and items that could harm passengers, such as swords and batons, are also banned from the cabin.
What to wear on a flight:
- The key to a comfortable flight can be as simple as your clothing choices. Prepare yourself for varying temperatures by bringing layers. That way you'll stay nice and warm if the cabin gets chilly. Shoes like stilettos, flip flops and lace-up boots are best left in your checked suitcase. Instead, opt for flat, closed-toed footwear like slip-ons. Your feet will thank you for it.
- Most travelers have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by reduced mobility or inactivity. There are many ways to mitigate your risk. Wear a quality pair of compression tights or socks, drink plenty of water and move your legs and feet. Wander around the cabin or perform some stretches in your seat.
