- The secret to having a stress-free flight experience is to plan ahead. So, let's start with the basics: passport, boarding pass, cash and daily medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you occupied, like some electronic gadgets or a few magazines. It's also a wise idea to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Last but not least, don't forget to toss in toiletries like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a clean T-shirt.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of banned items can differ between airlines, the general rule to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, drills, spray paint and flares. Sporting equipment like bows and arrows, and items that could harm passengers, such as firearms and swords, aren't allowed in the cabin either.
What to wear on a flight:
- The aisles of a plane aren't the place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfortable clothing and choose shoes that are flat, enclosed and easy to remove.
- Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clotting due to poor circulation, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks or tights.
