No matter where you're coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you prepare well enough. We've put together a list of handy tips and tricks that will help get your Ballybofey vacation started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The secret to having a great flight experience is to be prepared. So, let's start with the basics: passport, boarding pass, bank cards and vital medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you entertained, like some electronic gadgets or a thrilling book. It's also a wise idea to pack your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones. Finally, don't forget to chuck in toiletries like a toothbrush, deodorant and a fresh change of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp or pointed objects, like your precious Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, chemicals agents and gasoline, are also not allowed.
What to wear on a flight:
- Your main aim is to feel as comfortable as possible. Opt for slip-on footwear, dress in loose, natural fibers and remember to bring a pullover in case you get cold in the cabin.
- The result of sustained periods of immobility, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers during long-distance flights. Lower your risks by staying hydrated, keeping your legs moving and wearing compression socks to help your circulation.
