No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you prepare well enough. We've made a list of top travel tips that will get your Ou Chrov escape started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Air travel can be a pleasure if you've got all the right things. First things first, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as lip balm and hand cream, a fresh set of clothes and a good book. Next, find room in your carry-on bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, any daily medications and maybe a cozy neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget to bring your passport, travel docs and your credit cards.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Double-check that you don't have sharp or pointed objects hiding in the bottom of your carry-on luggage. Other restricted 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:
- The narrow aisles of an aircraft are not the place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfy clothing and take a cardigan as it can get quite cool inside the cabin on long-haul flights. Enclosed, flat shoes are also a wise idea.
- Most travelers are aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by reduced mobility or inactivity. There are many ways to reduce your risk. Don a pair of compression tights or socks, stay well hydrated and get your legs and feet moving. Wander up and down the aisles of the cabin or perform some stretches in your seat.
