No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you've prepared well. Take a peek at these handy tips and tricks that will get your Hethersett vacation started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Traveling on a plane can be a comfortable experience if you've got all the right stuff. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a clean pair of socks and a good book. Secondly, find room in your carry-on bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, any medications and maybe a comfy neck pillow too. Lastly, don't forget to bring your passport, travel documents and some money.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Make sure you don't have sharp or pointed objects hiding in one of the compartments of your carry-on luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive substances, such as fuel and matches, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).
What to wear on a flight:
- Your aim is to feel as comfortable as possible. Choose shoes that are easy to slip on and off, dress in loose, natural-fiber clothing and don't forget to bring a pullover in case it gets cold in the cabin.
- Most travelers are aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To lower your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression socks or tights and keep your legs and feet moving.
