Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Canoe could be no sweat at all or it could go on forever. We've pulled together some handy hints that will help you start your unforgettable escape on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Firstly, and most importantly, pack in your passport, travel docs, credit cards and vital medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling novel and a laptop filled with your favorite movies are some fantastic options. If you intend to catch a few z's, a quality neck pillow and some earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, leave space for a few toiletry items so you'll step off the plane looking and feeling fresh.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of prohibited items differs between airlines, the general rule to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, pocket knives, fuel and fireworks. Sporting equipment like ice skates, and objects that could harm other people, such as swords and guns, can't come on board with you either.
What to wear on a flight:
- Your goal here is to be as comfortable as you can. Pick flat, closed-toe shoes, dress in loose, breathable clothing and remember to bring a pullover in case you get chilly in the cabin.
- You've probably heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of inactivity. To lessen your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression tights or socks and move your lower limbs often.
