Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you've planned ahead. We've made a list of handy tips that will get your Pervomaisk escape started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Traveling on a plane can be a comfortable experience if you pack the right things. Firstly, you'll want a few basic toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare set of clothes and a good read. Secondly, leave space in your hand luggage for your electronic gadgets, chargers, any daily medications and perhaps a proper neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to bring your passport, travel documents and your credit cards.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of restricted items differs between air carriers, the general rule to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, blades, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sporting equipment like hockey sticks, and items that could harm passengers, such as pepper spray and guns, are also banned from the cabin.
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort should be your main priority when deciding what to wear on your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a smart choice, as are flat, slip-on shoes.
- Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clotting due to inactivity and poor circulation, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks.
