- The trick to having a worry-free flight experience is to pack in advance. So, let's start with the basics: passport, travel documents, cash and any vital medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you occupied, like some electronic gadgets or a juicy novel. It's also wise to pack your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones. Last but not least, don't forget to squeeze in toiletries like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a fresh set of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Double-check that you don't have a pocket knife lurking in one of the compartments of your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive substances, such as fuel and fireworks, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).
What to wear on a flight:
- The long, narrow aisles of your airplane are not the best place for a fashion parade. Wear comfortable clothes and don't forget to bring a cardigan as it can get chilly inside the cabin during longer flights. Enclosed, flat shoes are always a good choice too.
- The result of sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a serious condition that can affect passengers during long-haul flights. The good news is there are ways to lower your risk of developing it. Keep your fluids up, walk around the cabin as much as possible and wear compression socks to help improve your circulation.
