We've got the lowdown on how to make your flight a pleasant experience. Follow our tips and you'll be cruising through airport security and exploring Beloncio in no time.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- First of all, pack your passport, travel documents, bank cards and medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy novel and a laptop crammed with your favorite movies are some terrific options. If you intend to catch a few z's, a neck pillow and some noise-canceling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some facial wipes to ensure you touchdown looking fresh and ready to go.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of banned items differs between airlines, the general rule to follow is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like knives, scissors, fireworks and fuel. Sports equipment like hockey sticks, and objects that could harm other people, such as firearms and swords, are also banned from the cabin.
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort should be your main priority when selecting what to wear on your flight. Consider your footwear with care too, as swollen feet and ankles are a common occurrence. Flat shoes which are slightly roomy work well.
- The result of sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a serious condition that can affect passengers during long flights. But the great news is there are ways to significantly reduce the risk of developing it. Keep your fluids up, get up and walk around the cabin as much as you can and wear compression socks or tights.
