We've pulled together all the info you need to make your flight as enjoyable as possible. Follow our tips and tricks and you'll be breezing through airport security and having a blast in Marianka in no time flat.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Flying can be a pleasure if you carry the right things. Firstly, you'll want some basic toiletry items, such as lip balm and hand cream, a spare set of clothes and a good read. Secondly, find room in your bag for your laptop, a charger, medications and maybe a proper neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget to take your passport, travel papers and your credit cards.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Sharp objects, like your beloved Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and matches, are also banned.
What to wear on a flight:
- The main aim is to be as comfortable as possible. Layer up in natural fibers and pack a pullover in case you get cold. Pick a pair of roomy, flat shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell a little during the flight. Leave the stilettos and hiking boots in your main luggage.
- Most travelers are aware of DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. There are many ways to lessen your risk. Wear a pair of compression socks, drink plenty of water and keep your legs and feet moving. Wander around the cabin or perform some stretches in your seat.
