We've rounded up all the info you need to make your journey an enjoyable experience. Follow our tips and you'll be breezing through airport security and having a blast in Whimple in no time flat. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- First and foremost, put in your passport, important documents, wallet and medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy book and a laptop crammed with your favorite movies are good options. If you plan to catch forty winks, a quality neck pillow and some noise-canceling headphones will also be useful. Finally, make room for a few toiletry items to ensure you arrive at your destination looking fresh and ready to go.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Pointed or sharp objects, like your trusty Swiss Army knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, chemicals agents and fuels, are also not allowed.
What to wear on a flight:
- Go for comfort over style. Prepare for changes in cabin temperature by donning layers, and pick slightly roomy, flat shoes like sneakers.
- 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 lots of water, consider wearing compression tights or socks and keep your legs and feet moving.
