- The trick to having a worry-free flight experience is to pack ahead. So, let's start with the basics: passport, travel documents, credit cards and medications. Next, bring items that'll help pass the time, like your laptop or a thrilling book. It's also smart to pack your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of earphones. Last but not least, don't forget to squeeze in toiletries like a toothbrush, deodorant and a clean T-shirt.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Make sure you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) hiding in the bottom of your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable substances, like aerosols and matches, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort should always be your main priority when picking what to wear during your flight. Consider your footwear choice with care too, as swollen ankles and feet are a common side effect of flying. Shoes which are flat and slightly roomy are always a sensible way to go.
- Caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a condition that can affect passengers during long-haul flights. The good news is there are ways to significantly reduce the risk of developing it. Keep your fluids up, get up and walk around the cabin as often as possible and wear compression tights or socks.
