Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Baty could be no sweat at all or it could go on forever. We've put together some handy hints that will help you start your next big adventure on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The secret to having an amazing flight experience is to pack ahead. First up, the essentials: passport, travel documents, bank cards and vital medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help while away those hours, like your laptop or a good book. It's also wise to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Last but not least, don't forget to chuck in toiletry items like a toothbrush, lip balm and a fresh change of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Sharp or pointed objects, like your precious Swiss Army knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, bleaching agents and fuels, are also prohibited.
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort should be your number one priority when deciding what to wear on your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a sensible option, as are flat, enclosed shoes.
- Most travelers are aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To lessen your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression socks or tights and keep your legs and feet moving.
