Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Anchialos could be a breeze or it could go on forever. We've pulled together some handy travel tips that will help you start your unforgettable escape on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The trick to having a great travel experience is to pack ahead. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, official ID, bank cards and vital medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you entertained, like your laptop or a few magazines. You'll also want to pack your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones. Finally, be sure to toss in toiletry items like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a spare set of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Pack all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Sharp or pointed objects, like your Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosols and strong acids, are also prohibited.
What to wear on a flight:
- Your aim here is to feel as comfortable as you can. Layer yourself up in natural fibers and take a pullover in case it gets cool in the cabin. Go for a pair of flat, well-fitting shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell a little during the journey. Leave the stilettos and hiking boots in your checked baggage.
- Most travelers are aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of sitting. There are numerous ways to minimize your risk. Wear a pair of compression socks or tights, stay well hydrated and move your legs and feet. Do a lap or two of the cabin or try out some exercises in your seat.
