Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you've prepared well enough. We've put together a list of handy tips and tricks that will get your Hayna vacation started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- First of all, pack in your passport, travel documents, cash and medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy book and a tablet crammed with your favorite movies are good options. If you plan to take a quick snooze, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also be useful. Finally, leave space for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes to ensure you hop off the plane feeling fresh and ready to go.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Make sure you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) hiding in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable products, such as fuel and matches, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).
What to wear on a flight:
- The goal here is to make yourself as comfortable as possible. Layer up in natural fibers and remember to bring a sweater in case it gets chilly in the cabin. Always go with flat, well-fitting shoes as your feet may swell during the flight. Leave the stilettos and hiking boots in your luggage.
- Caused by sustained periods of immobility, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a serious condition that can affect some passengers on long-haul flights. The good news is there are proven ways to significantly reduce the risk of developing it. Drink plenty of water, wander through the cabin as often as possible and wear compression socks to help improve your circulation.
