Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a seamless experience if you're well organized. Check out these top travel tips that will get your Bee Branch escape started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The secret to having a pain-free flight experience is to pack ahead. So, let's start with the basics: passport, travel docs, bank cards and important medications. Next, bring items that'll help while away those hours, like some electronic devices or a juicy novel. It's also wise to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of headphones. And of course, don't forget to toss in toiletries like a toothbrush, deodorant and a fresh set of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Make sure you don't have sharp or pointed objects hiding in one of the compartments of your hand luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive goods, such as fuel and matches, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort should be your highest priority when deciding what to wear on your flight. Consider your footwear choice with care too, as swollen feet and ankles can be a side effect of flying. Flat shoes which are slightly roomy are your best bet.
- Unfortunately, a risk of long-distance travel is developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity. To avoid this, make the most of every opportunity to walk around and give your legs a stretch. Compression tights and socks are another easy way to help minimize this risk.
