Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Sutton could be a breeze or it could go on forever. We've pulled together some handy hints that will help you start your next great escape on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Flying can be a great experience if you carry the right gear. First of all you'll need basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a spare set of clothes and a good novel. Secondly, find a spot in your hand luggage for your electronic devices, chargers, your medications and perhaps a proper neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, remember to take your passport, travel documents and some cash.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Check carefully that you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) lurking in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive substances, like aerosols and matches, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).
What to wear on a flight:
- Your aim is to be as comfortable as possible. Opt for slip-on footwear, dress in loose, breathable clothing and don't forget to take a pullover in case you get cold in the cabin.
- It's likely you've heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of sitting. To lower your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression socks and move your legs and feet often.
