If you're poorly prepared, traveling can be daunting. But there's no need to worry. Follow these useful tips and enjoy a stress-free start to your time in Ylamaa.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- It's easy — first, put in your passport, travel docs, cash and vital medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A juicy novel and a phone filled with your favorite movies are always good options. If you hope to catch a few z's, a neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some facial wipes to ensure you arrive looking and feeling fresh.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of restricted items differs between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes tools, metal cutlery, fireworks and fuel. Sporting equipment like golf clubs, and items that could harm passengers, such as guns and swords, can't come on board with you either.
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort really should be your prime concern when choosing what to wear on your flight. Consider your footwear choice carefully too, as swollen feet and ankles are a common occurrence. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are your best bet.
- The serious condition called deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clotting due to inactivity and poor circulation. Walking up and down the aisle and doing foot and leg exercises in your seat is a great way to prevent this developing. Wearing a quality pair of compression socks or tights also helps reduce your risk.
