Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a seamless experience if you've prepared well. Check out these handy travel tips that will get your Kars escape started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Firstly, and most importantly, put in your passport, important documents, cash and medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling book and a phone crammed with your favorite shows are some wonderful options. If you hope to catch a few z's, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, squeeze in 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:
- Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Pointed or sharp objects, like your beloved pocket knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, bleaching agents and fireworks, are also prohibited.
What to wear on a flight:
- Your goal here is to be as comfortable as you can. Go for easy-to-remove footwear, dress in loose, breathable clothing and don't forget to take a jacket in case it gets chilly in the cabin.
- Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to wander around the cabin or do some simple exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.
