- The trick to having a hassle-free flight experience is to plan ahead. First up, the essentials: passport, official ID, credit cards and vital medications. Next, bring items that'll help keep you busy, like some electronic gadgets or a thrilling book. You'll also want to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earphones. And of course, don't forget to toss in toiletry items like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a spare change of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Pointed or sharp objects, like your treasured pocket knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, chemicals agents and gasoline, are also prohibited.
What to wear on a flight:
- The goal here is to be as comfortable as you can. Dress in loose, natural-fiber clothing and take a jacket just in case you get cold. Opt for a pair of flat, slightly roomy shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell a little during the journey. Leave the high heels and hiking boots in your main luggage.

But the good news is there are numerous ways to significantly reduce your risk of developing it.
