No matter where you're coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you're well prepared. We've put together a list of handy hints that will get your Nobres vacation started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The secret to having a stress-free flight experience is to pack ahead. First up, the essentials: passport, travel docs, bank cards and daily medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you entertained, like some electronic gadgets or a thrilling novel. You'll also want to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones. And of course, don't forget to squeeze in toiletries like a toothbrush, lip balm and a spare set of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of prohibited items differs between air carriers, the general guide to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like box cutters, razor blades, spray paint and fireworks. Sports equipment like hockey sticks, and objects that could harm other people, such as pepper spray and firearms, are also banned from the cabin.
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort really should be your prime concern when choosing 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.
- Most travelers are aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by reduced mobility or inactivity. There are numerous ways to lower your risk. Wear a good-quality pair of compression tights or socks, drink lots of water often and keep your legs and feet moving. Do a few laps of the cabin or try out some exercises in your seat.
