Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you've prepared well enough. Take a peek at these top travel tips that will help get your Ystalyfera escape started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Flying can be a pleasure if you bring the right gear. First things first, you'll need toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and some deodorant, a spare change of clothes and a good read. Secondly, leave space in your bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, any medications and perhaps a neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to bring your passport, travel docs and your bank cards.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Pointed or sharp objects, like a Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, bleaching agents and strong acids, are also banned.
What to wear on a flight:
- Your top priority is to be as comfortable as you can. Choose a pair of slip-on shoes, dress in loose, breathable clothing and remember to take a sweater in case you get chilly in the cabin.
- The result of sustained periods of immobility, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers on long-haul flights. Reduce the risks by drinking water, keeping your feet and legs moving and wearing compression socks or tights.
