Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Rhode could be simple and straightforward or it could drag on forever. We've put together some useful hints that will help you start your unforgettable escape on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- First of all, pack in your passport, travel documents, cash and daily medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy book and a laptop crammed with your favorite shows are some terrific options. If you intend to take a quick nap, a comfy neck pillow and some earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some facial wipes to ensure you arrive at your destination looking fresh and raring to go.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of banned items differs between airlines, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like knives, scissors, spray paint and fireworks. Sporting equipment like baseball bats, and items that could harm other people, such as pepper spray and firearms, can't come on board with you either.
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort should be your main concern when choosing what to wear during your flight. Loose clothing is a sensible option, as are flat, closed-toe shoes.
- Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Wander around the cabin and stretch your legs or do some simple exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.
