Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Hillman could be completely painless or it could go on forever. We've put together some useful travel tips that will help you start your next great adventure on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- It's easy — first, put in your passport, important documents, bank cards and vital medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling book and a laptop crammed with your favorite shows are some wonderful options. If you hope to take a short snooze, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also be useful. Finally, squeeze in a few toiletry items so you'll step off the plane feeling fresh as a daisy.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Sharp objects, like your precious Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as spray paint, flares and matches, are also not allowed.
What to wear on a flight:
- The aisles of an aircraft aren't the place for a fashion parade. Don comfortable layers and choose shoes that are roomy, flat and easy to take on and off.
- The result of prolonged periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers on long-haul flights. Reduce the risks by staying hydrated, keeping your lower limbs moving and wearing compression socks or tights.
