We've got the lowdown on how to make your flight as stress-free as possible. Follow our tips and tricks and you'll be speeding through airport security and seeing the best of Ocenelli in no time at all. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Flying can be a cruisy experience if you bring the right gear. First things first, you'll need basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a clean pair of socks and a few magazines. Next, leave space in your bag for your phone and charger, any vital medications and perhaps a blow-up neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, remember to take your passport, travel docs and your bank cards.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp or pointed objects, like a pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as spray paint, flares and poisons, are also restricted.
What to wear on a flight:
- The aisles of an aircraft aren't the place for a fashion parade. Wear layers and pick shoes that are flat, enclosed and easy to remove.
- The result of sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers on long-haul flights. Reduce the risks by drinking water, keeping your ankles and legs moving and wearing compression socks or tights.
