Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you've planned ahead. Check out these handy tips and tricks that will get your Yongren County escape started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Firstly, and most importantly, pack in your passport, travel docs, bank cards and medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy novel and a phone crammed with your favorite shows are some wonderful options. If you intend to take a quick snooze, a neck pillow and some noise-canceling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, leave space for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes to ensure you arrive at your destination feeling fresh and raring to go.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Leave all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Sharp objects, like your Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, bleaching agents and matches, are also prohibited.
What to wear on a flight:
- Your main priority is to feel as comfortable as you can. Pick flat, closed-toe shoes, dress in loose, breathable clothing and don't forget to bring a pullover in case it gets cold in the cabin.
- Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to wander around the cabin or do some gentle exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.
