Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Bardwell could be completely painless or it could go on forever. We've put together some handy tips that will help you start your next great adventure on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- First, pack your passport, travel docs, cash and medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A thrilling book and a phone filled with your favorite movies are good options. If you hope to take a quick snooze, a quality neck pillow and some noise-canceling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some deodorant to ensure you touchdown feeling fresh and raring to go.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of banned items can differ between airlines, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, knives, spray paint and flares. Sporting equipment like golf clubs, and items that could injure passengers, such as firearms and ammunition, are also banned from the cabin.
What to wear on a flight:
- The aisles of an aircraft aren't the place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfy clothing and pick shoes that are flat, enclosed and easy to pull on and off.
- It's likely you've heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. To lessen your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression socks and move your legs and feet often.
