Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Racale could be a piece of cake or it could go on forever. We've put together some useful tips that will help you start your next great adventure on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The trick to having an amazing travel experience is to pack in advance. First up, the essentials: passport, boarding pass, cash and medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you entertained, like some electronic devices or a thrilling book. It's also wise to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earphones. Last but not least, don't forget to toss in toiletries like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a clean set of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of banned items differs between air carriers, the general rule to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, knives, spray paint and fireworks. Sports equipment like ski poles, and items that could harm passengers, such as firearms and swords, are also banned from the cabin.
What to wear on a flight:
- Your aim is to be as comfortable as you can. Opt for a pair of slip-on shoes, dress in loose, natural fibers and remember to take a sweater in case you get chilly in the cabin.
- Most of us have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. To reduce your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression tights or socks and move your legs and feet often.
