Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a seamless experience if you're prepared. We've made a list of essential travel tips that will help get your Cereal vacation started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- First things first, put in your passport, official ID, credit cards and vital medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A thrilling novel and a laptop crammed with your favorite shows are always good options. If you intend to catch a few z's, a comfy neck pillow and some noise-canceling headphones will also be useful. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some deodorant so you'll step off the plane looking fresh and ready to go.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of banned items differs between air carriers, the general rule to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, pocket knives, fireworks and fuel. Sporting equipment like golf clubs, and objects that could injure passengers, such as pepper spray and guns, won't be allowed on board either.
What to wear on a flight:
- The aisles of a plane aren't the place for a fashion parade. Wear layers and pick shoes that are flat and easy to slip on and off.
- The result of lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers during long-haul flights. Reduce the risks by staying hydrated, keeping your legs and ankles moving and wearing compression socks to help improve your circulation.
