We've pulled together all the info you need to make your flight an enjoyable experience. Follow our tips and you'll be hightailing it through the airport and having a ball in Divide in no time at all. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The secret to having a stress-free flight experience is to be prepared. Start with the essentials: passport, boarding pass, cash and medications. Next, bring items that'll help keep you occupied, like your laptop or a thrilling book. You'll also want to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earphones. Last but not least, be sure to squeeze in toiletry items like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a fresh set of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of restricted items can differ between airlines, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, blades, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sporting equipment like hockey sticks, and objects that could injure passengers, such as guns and swords, won't be allowed on board either.
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort should be your priority when choosing what to wear during your flight. Loose clothing is a smart choice, as are enclosed shoes like sneakers.
- You're probably aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. To reduce your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression socks and do gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat.
