Wherever you're coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you're well organized. We've made a list of handy tips that will help get your Lubon vacation started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- First and foremost, pack in your passport, travel documents, cash and vital medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy novel and a tablet crammed with your favorite movies are good options. If you plan to take a quick nap, a neck pillow and some earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, find room for a few toiletry items to ensure you hop off the plane feeling fresh as a daisy.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of banned items can differ between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, blades, spray paint and flares. Sports equipment like hockey sticks, and objects that could harm passengers, such as firearms and ammunition, won't be allowed on board either.
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort really should be your prime concern when deciding what to wear on board. Consider your choice of footwear with care too, as swollen ankles and feet are quite common. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are your best bet.
- The result of sustained periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a serious condition that can affect passengers on long-distance flights. The good news is there are proven ways to significantly reduce the risk of developing it. Stay well hydrated, wander around the cabin as much as possible and wear compression socks to help improve your circulation.
