Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Hammaro could be no sweat at all or it could drag on forever. We've put together some useful travel tips that will help you start your next great escape on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- A plane trip can be a cruisy experience if you carry the right gear. Firstly, you'll want some basic toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare change of clothes and a good book. Next, leave space in your bag for your electronic devices, chargers, any daily medications and perhaps a neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, don't forget to bring your passport, travel papers and your credit cards.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Check carefully that you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) lurking in one of the compartments of your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive substances, such as fuel and matches, and liquids and gels in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).
What to wear on a flight:
- Your aim here is to feel as comfortable as you can. Dress in loose, natural-fiber clothing and pack a cardigan in case you get cold. Always go with well-fitting, flat shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell a little during the flight. Leave the stilettos and chunky boots in your main luggage.
- Unfortunately, one risk of long-haul flights is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity. To prevent this, take every opportunity to wander around the cabin. Compression socks and tights are another easy way to help reduce this risk.
