Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Alt Golm could be a breeze or it could drag on forever. Below are some tips that will help you start your next great escape on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The trick to having an amazing travel experience is to pack ahead. So, let's start with the basics: passport, official ID, credit cards and daily medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you busy, like some electronic devices or a good book. You'll also want to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones. And of course, be sure to chuck in toiletry items like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a spare change of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of restricted items differs between air carriers, the general rule to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, pocket knives, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sports equipment like ski poles, and objects that could injure passengers, such as swords and guns, aren't allowed in the cabin either.
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort should be your top priority when choosing what to wear on your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a smart option, as are enclosed shoes like sneakers.
- Most travelers are aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To lower your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression tights or socks and keep your legs and feet moving.
