We've rounded up all the info you need to make your journey as enjoyable as possible. Follow our tips and you'll be hightailing it through airport security and having a blast in Notter in no time flat.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The trick to having an awesome travel experience is to pack in advance. Start with the essentials: passport, boarding pass, cash and medications. Next, bring items that'll help pass the time, like some electronic devices or a good book. It's also smart to pack your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. Last but not least, be sure to pop in toiletries like a toothbrush, lip balm and a fresh set of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Leave all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Pointed or sharp objects, like your pocket knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, flares and strong acids, are also not allowed.
What to wear on a flight:
- The answer to a comfortable flight often lies in your clothing choices. Prepare for changes in temperature by layering up. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin gets chilly. Shoes like stilettos, flip flops and lace-up boots are best left in your suitcase. Instead, go for flat, closed-toed footwear like sneakers. Your feet will appreciate it.
- The result of sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a condition that can affect passengers on long-haul flights. The good news is there are proven ways to reduce your risk of developing it. Drink plenty of water, get up and walk around the cabin as much as you can and wear compression tights or socks.
