If you're not prepared, airports and flying can be a real challenge. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these helpful hints and enjoy a stress-free start to your vacation in Gonvick.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Air travel can be a great experience if you bring the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want some basic toiletries, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare change of clothes and something to read. Secondly, find a spot in your hand luggage for your electronic devices, chargers, your medications and maybe a blow-up neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, don't forget to bring your passport, travel papers and some money.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Pack all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Pointed or sharp objects, like a Swiss Army knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, flares and fireworks, are also prohibited.
What to wear on a flight:
- Your number one priority is to be as comfortable as you can. Dress in loose, natural fibers and don't forget to pack a sweater in case it gets chilly in the cabin. Always opt for roomy, flat shoes as your feet may swell a little during the flight. Leave the high heels and heavy boots in your main luggage.
- The result of sustained periods of immobility, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers on long-distance flights. The great news is there are proven ways to reduce the risk of developing it. Keep your fluids up, get up and walk around the cabin whenever possible and wear compression socks to help improve your circulation.
