Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Chandlerville could be no sweat at all or it could drag on forever. Below are some handy tips that will help you start your unforgettable escape on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- A plane trip can be a pleasure if you bring the right things. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a clean set of clothes and a good book. Secondly, find room in your hand luggage for your electronic gadgets, chargers, your medications and maybe a comfy neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to bring your passport, travel docs and some cash.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of banned items differs between airlines, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, blades, fuels and bleaching agents. Sporting equipment like ice skates, and objects that could injure passengers, such as firearms and swords, are also banned from the cabin.
What to wear on a flight:
- The narrow aisles of an airplane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer yourself up with comfortable clothes and bring a sweater as it can get chilly in the cabin on long-haul flights. Flat, enclosed shoes are also a sensible choice.
- The result of sustained periods of immobility, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a condition that can affect some passengers on long-distance flights. But the good news is there are ways to lower your risk of developing it. Stay well hydrated, walk up and down the aisles as often as you can and wear compression socks or tights.
