No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you prepare well enough. We've put together a list of top travel tips that will help get your Skaryszew vacation started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- First of all, pack in your passport, important documents, credit cards and daily medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy novel and a tablet filled with your favorite shows are some great options. If you plan to take a quick snooze, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also be useful. Finally, leave space for a toothbrush and some facial wipes so you'll arrive feeling fresh as a daisy.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of restricted items can differ between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, pocket knives, aerosol cans and flares. Sporting equipment like bows and arrows, and items that could harm passengers, such as swords and guns, aren't allowed in the cabin either.
What to wear on a flight:
- The narrow aisles of an airplane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer yourself up with comfortable clothes and remember to bring a sweater as the temperature can drop in the cabin on long-haul flights. Enclosed, flat shoes are also a wise idea.
- Most of us have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. There are plenty of ways to lower your risk. Wear compression tights or socks, drink lots of water and remember to keep your legs and feet moving. Walk the aisles of the cabin or perform some simple exercises in your seat.
