If you're poorly prepared, traveling can be daunting. But there's no need to worry. Follow these helpful hints for a stress-free start to your vacation in Falcon. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The trick to having an awesome flight experience is to plan ahead. So, let's start with the basics: passport, travel docs, cash and vital medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you busy, like some electronic devices or a few magazines. It's also a wise idea to pack your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones. And of course, don't forget to squeeze in toiletry items like a toothbrush, lip balm and a clean set of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray 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 a pocket knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and strong acids, are also prohibited.
What to wear on a flight:
- The aisles of an airplane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer your clothing and pick shoes that are flat, roomy and easy to remove.
- It's likely you've heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To minimize your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression socks and do gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat.
