We've pulled together all the info you need to make your flight a stress-free experience. Follow our tips and tricks and you'll be speeding through the airport and having a ball in Arichat in no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- First of all, pack your passport, official ID, credit cards and vital medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy novel and a tablet crammed with your favorite movies are some terrific options. If you hope to take a short nap, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, squeeze in a toothbrush and some facial wipes to ensure you hop off the plane feeling fresh as a daisy.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Leave 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. Sharp objects, like your precious pocket knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as spray paint, flares and gasoline, are also banned.
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort should be your number one priority when choosing what to wear on your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a wise option, as are flat, slip-on shoes.
- Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by extended periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Wander around the cabin and stretch your legs or do some gentle exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.
