We've rounded up all the info you need to make your journey a stress-free experience. Follow our tips and you'll be speeding through airport security and discovering Wetmore in next to no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The trick to having an amazing flight experience is to plan ahead. Start with the essentials: passport, boarding pass, credit cards and daily medications. Next, bring items that'll help while away those hours, like your laptop or a magazine. You'll also want to pack your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of earphones. Last but not least, don't forget to chuck in toiletries like a toothbrush, lip balm and a fresh change of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Sharp objects, like your beloved pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosols and matches, are also banned.
What to wear on a flight:
- Your top priority is to feel as comfortable as possible. Choose shoes that are easy to slip on and off, dress in loose, natural-fiber clothing and remember to bring a jacket in case you get cold in the cabin.
- The result of lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers on long-haul flights. Reduce the risks by drinking water, keeping your legs moving and wearing compression tights or socks.
