- A plane trip can be easy if you've got all the right gear. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletries, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare set of clothes and a few magazines. Next, leave space in your bag for your phone and charger, medications and maybe a comfy neck pillow as well. Lastly, don't forget to bring your passport, travel papers and your bank cards.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Make sure you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) lurking in your hand luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive goods, such as bleach and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).
What to wear on a flight:
- Your goal here is to make yourself as comfortable as you can. Layer up in natural-fiber clothing and pack a jacket in case it gets cold in the cabin. Opt for a pair of well-fitting, flat shoes as your feet may swell during the journey. Leave the stilettos and heavy hiking boots in your main luggage.
- Caused by sustained periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a serious condition that can affect passengers on long-haul flights. The great news is there are ways to significantly reduce your risk of developing it. Stay well hydrated, walk up and down the aisles as much as you can and wear compression socks or tights.
