Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Bernesq could be no sweat at all or it could drag on forever. We've pulled together some useful tips that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Flying can be easy if you bring the right gear. First of all you'll need basic toiletry items, such as deodorant, toothpaste and a toothbrush, a spare pair of socks and a few magazines. Next, find a spot in your bag for your electronic devices, chargers, medications and perhaps a cozy neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, don't forget to bring your passport, travel papers and some cash.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Make sure you don't have a Swiss Army knife hiding in the bottom of your carry-on luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable products, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).
What to wear on a flight:
- The aisles of a plane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfortable clothing and don't forget to bring a sweater as the temperature can drop inside the cabin. Enclosed, flat shoes are always a good choice too.
- Most of us have heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of sitting. There's lots you can do to lower your risk. Wear a quality pair of compression tights or socks, drink lots of water often and remember to keep your legs and feet moving. Walk around the cabin when possible or try out some simple stretches in your seat.
