Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you're well organized. Check out these essential travel tips that will help get your Acqualagna escape started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The trick to having an awesome travel experience is to be prepared. Start with the essentials: passport, travel documents, cash and important medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help pass the time, like some electronic devices or a good book. It's also wise to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. Last but not least, be sure to pop in toiletries like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a fresh change of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Make sure you don't have sharp or pointed objects hiding in one of the zippers of your carry-on luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive goods, such as fuel and matches, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).
What to wear on a flight:
- The goal here is to make yourself as comfortable as possible. Don layers of breathable clothing and bring a pullover just in case you get chilly. Always opt for roomy, flat shoes as your feet may swell during the flight. Leave the stilettos and chunky boots in your luggage.
- Most of us have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of sitting. There are many ways to minimize your risk. Wear a quality pair of compression socks or tights, drink lots of water and get your legs and feet moving. Walk the aisles of the cabin or try out some exercises in your seat.
