Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Bonsecours could be no sweat at all or it could go on forever. Below are some useful hints that will help you start your next great adventure on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- It's simple — first, pack your passport, official ID, bank cards and daily medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling book and a laptop filled with your favorite shows are always good options. If you intend to take a short snooze, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, leave space for a toothbrush and some facial wipes to ensure you step off the plane looking and feeling fresh.
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 gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Sharp objects, like a Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as spray paint, flares and poisons, are also banned.
What to wear on a flight:
- The key to a comfortable flight often lies in the clothes you wear. Prepare yourself for varying temperatures by bringing layers. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin gets too cold. Shoes like sandals and heels are best left for other occasions. Instead, opt for flat, closed-toed footwear like sneakers. Your feet will appreciate it.
- Most travelers are aware of DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by reduced mobility or inactivity. There's plenty you can do to reduce your risk. Wear a pair of compression socks or tights, stay hydrated and move your legs and feet. Wander up and down the aisles of the cabin or perform some simple exercises in your seat.
