Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Casamaggiore could be a piece of cake or it could drag on forever. We've put together some handy hints that will help you start your unforgettable escape on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Air travel can be a great experience if you take the right gear. Firstly, you'll want some basic toiletries, such as toothpaste, a toothbrush and some deodorant, a spare change of clothes and a few magazines. Secondly, find room in your carry-on bag for your phone and charger, your important medications and maybe a comfy neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, don't forget to bring your passport, travel docs and your bank cards.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Pointed or sharp objects, like your treasured pocket knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, chemicals agents and gasoline, are also prohibited.
What to wear on a flight:
- The aisles of an airplane are no place for a fashion parade. Wear comfortable clothes and remember to take a sweater as it can get chilly in the cabin. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are also recommended.
- The result of lengthy periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers on long-haul flights. But the good news is there are ways to reduce the risk of developing it. Drink plenty of water, get up and walk around the cabin whenever possible and wear compression tights or socks.
