Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Wigglesworth could be as easy as pie or it could drag on forever. We've compiled some useful hints that will help you start your next big adventure on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The trick to having an awesome flight experience is to pack ahead. So, let's start with the basics: passport, official ID, bank cards and important medications. Next, take on board items that'll help pass the time, like your laptop or a thrilling book. You'll also want to pack your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of headphones. And of course, be sure to toss in toiletry items like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a fresh set of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Double-check that you don't have a Swiss Army knife lurking in one of the zippers of your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable products, such as fuel and fireworks, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort should always be your number one priority when choosing what to wear during your flight. Consider your choice of footwear carefully too, as swollen feet and ankles are quite common. Slightly roomy, flat shoes are always a smart option.
- The condition by the name of DVT (deep vein thrombosis) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to inactivity and poor circulation. Walking around the cabin and doing regular foot and leg exercises while seated helps to prevent this happening. Wearing a good pair of compression socks may also help.
