We've got the lowdown on how to make your journey an enjoyable experience. Follow our tips and tricks and you'll be cruising through the airport and seeing the best of Longrock in no time at all.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Air travel can be easy if you bring the right gear. First of all you'll need toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and some deodorant, a spare pair of socks and a good novel. Secondly, leave space in your bag for your phone and charger, any vital medications and perhaps a quality neck pillow as well. Lastly, don't forget to take your passport, travel docs and your bank cards.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of banned items differs between airlines, the general rule to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like tools, metal cutlery, spray paint and flares. Sporting equipment like ski poles, and items that could harm other people, such as swords and guns, aren't allowed in the cabin either.
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort should be your prime concern when picking what to wear on your flight. Consider your footwear with care too, as swollen feet and ankles are a common side effect of flying. Slightly roomy, flat shoes are always a smart option.
- Caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a serious condition that can affect passengers on long-distance flights. But the great news is there are numerous ways to significantly reduce the risk of developing it. Stay hydrated, wander around the cabin whenever possible and wear compression socks to help improve your circulation.
