We've got the lowdown on how to make your flight a pleasant experience. Follow our tips and tricks and you'll be zooming through the airport and seeing the best of Badenbrunn in no time at all.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Traveling on a plane can be a comfortable experience if you bring the right things. First things first, you'll need toiletry items, such as toothpaste, a toothbrush and some deodorant, a fresh set of clothes and a good read. Next, find room in your hand luggage for your mobile phone, a charger, your medications and perhaps a quality neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to take your passport, travel docs and some money.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Double-check that you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) lurking in one of the compartments of your hand luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive goods, such as fuel and matches, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).
What to wear on a flight:
- The goal here is to make yourself as comfortable as you can. Dress in loose, natural-fiber clothing and don't forget to pack a cardigan just in case you get cold. Opt for flat, slightly roomy shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell a little during the journey. Leave the stilettos and heavy hiking boots in your checked luggage.
- A serious condition known as DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to poor circulation. Doing regular leg and foot exercises in your seat is a great way to prevent this from occurring. Wearing a high-quality pair of compression socks also helps reduce your risk.
