Wherever you're coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you're well prepared. We've compiled a list of handy tips that will help get your Kepice vacation started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- First, pack your passport, official ID, credit cards and daily medications. Next, you'll need some in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling book and a tablet crammed with your favorite movies are some wonderful options. If you intend to take a short snooze, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, leave some space for a few toiletry items to ensure you touchdown looking and feeling fresh.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked luggage. 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 precious pocket knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and fuels, are also prohibited.
What to wear on a flight:
- The aisles of an airplane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer yourself up with comfortable clothes and remember to bring a cardigan as the temperature can drop inside the cabin during long-haul flights. Enclosed, flat shoes are also a sensible choice.
- The result of sustained periods of immobility, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers during long flights. The good news is there are numerous ways to lower your risk of developing it. Stay well hydrated, wander around the cabin as often as you can and wear compression socks to help improve your circulation.
