If you're poorly prepared, traveling can be overwhelming. But there's no need to panic. Follow these handy tips and enjoy a comfortable start to your time in Fairview. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- First and foremost, put in your passport, travel docs, bank cards and medications. Next, you'll need some in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy novel and a laptop filled with your favorite movies are some wonderful options. If you hope to catch forty winks, a quality neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some deodorant so you'll hop off the plane feeling fresh and raring to go.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Pointed or sharp objects, like your beloved Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and matches, are also prohibited.
What to wear on a flight:
- Choose comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes in the cabin by wearing layers, and wear flat, easy-to-remove footwear like sneakers.
- Caused by sustained periods of immobility, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers during long flights. Reduce the risks by drinking water, keeping your lower limbs moving and wearing compression socks or tights.
