We've got the lowdown on how to make your flight a pleasant experience. Follow our tips and tricks and you'll be breezing through airport security and enjoying Lina in next to no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The trick to having an amazing travel experience is to pack ahead. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, boarding pass, credit cards and daily medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help pass the time, like some electronic gadgets or a thrilling book. It's also wise to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of earphones. And of course, be sure to squeeze in toiletry items like a toothbrush, deodorant and a spare set of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Pointed or sharp objects, like your beloved Swiss Army knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosols and gasoline, are also restricted.
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort should be your top priority when choosing what to wear on board. Loose clothing is a wise option, as are flat, slightly roomy shoes.
- Caused by sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers during long-haul flights. Reduce the risks by drinking water, keeping your legs moving and wearing compression socks or tights.
