If you're poorly prepared, air travel can be overwhelming. But there's no need to hit the panic button just yet. Follow these handy hints and enjoy a pain-free start to your vacation in Crucea.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Firstly, and most importantly, put in your passport, official ID, wallet and daily medications. Next, you'll want some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A thrilling book and a laptop filled with your favorite movies are some wonderful options. If you plan to catch forty winks, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones will also be useful. Finally, leave some space for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes so you'll arrive at your destination looking fresh and ready to go.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Double-check that you don't have sharp or pointed objects lurking in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive substances, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).
What to wear on a flight:
- The aisles of a plane are not the place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfortable clothing and remember to bring a sweater as the temperature can drop in the cabin. Closed-toed, flat shoes are always a good choice too.
- Caused by sustained periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers during long-haul flights. But the good news is there are numerous ways to lower your risk of developing it. Keep your fluids up, get up and wander the aisles whenever possible and wear compression socks or tights.
