Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a seamless experience if you're well prepared. We've made a list of handy hints that will get your Marzaglia escape started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The trick to having a pain-free flight experience is to pack in advance. So, let's start with the basics: passport, boarding pass, bank cards and important medications. Next, bring items that'll help keep you entertained, like some electronic gadgets or a thrilling novel. It's also a wise idea to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. And of course, don't forget to toss in toiletry items like a toothbrush, deodorant and a spare set of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Make sure you don't have a sharp object hiding in the bottom of your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable goods, like aerosols and matches, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort really should be your prime concern when deciding what to wear on board. Consider your footwear choice with care too, as swollen feet and ankles can be a side effect of flying. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are always a good idea.
- The result of sustained periods of immobility, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a serious condition that can affect passengers during long flights. The great news is there are ways to significantly reduce your risk of developing it. Stay well hydrated, wander through the cabin as often as possible and wear compression tights or socks.
