Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Albe could be a piece of cake or it could drag on forever. Below are some useful hints that will help you start your next big adventure on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Air travel can be a great experience if you bring the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want some toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and some deodorant, a spare change of clothes and a good novel. Secondly, make room in your bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, any vital medications and maybe a comfy neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget to bring your passport, travel papers and some money.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Sharp objects, like your trusty Swiss Army knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and poisons, are also banned.
What to wear on a flight:
- Your number one priority is to feel as comfortable as you can. Layer yourself up in natural fibers and take a sweater in case it gets cool in the cabin. Always opt for flat, slightly roomy shoes as your feet may swell during the flight. Leave the high heels and hiking boots in your checked luggage.
- Most travelers are aware of DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of inactivity. There are plenty of ways to minimize your risk. Wear a quality pair of compression tights or socks, drink lots of water often and move your legs and feet. Walk the aisles of the cabin or try out some exercises in your seat.
