Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you've prepared well enough. Check out these essential travel tips that will get your Wardsboro vacation started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- It's simple — first, pack your passport, official ID, cash and medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to while away the hours. A thrilling novel and a laptop crammed with your favorite movies are good options. If you hope to take a short snooze, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some deodorant to ensure you arrive at your destination feeling fresh and raring to go.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of restricted items differs between airlines, the general rule to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, blades, fuel and fireworks. Sporting equipment like hockey sticks, and items that could injure passengers, such as firearms and ammunition, aren't allowed in the cabin either.
What to wear on a flight:
- Your goal here is to feel as comfortable as you can. Pick a pair of slip-on shoes, dress in loose, natural-fiber clothing and don't forget to take a sweater in case you get chilly in the cabin.
- Most travelers have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of sitting. To reduce your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression socks or tights and do gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat.
