If you're poorly prepared, traveling can be a real challenge. But there's no need to worry. Follow these handy tips for a trouble-free start to your time in Kingfield. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Air travel can be a comfortable experience if you pack the right things. Firstly, you'll want some toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a fresh change of clothes and a few magazines. Secondly, make room in your carry-on bag for your phone and charger, any medications and maybe a proper neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, remember to take your passport, travel papers and your bank cards.
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 bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp or pointed objects, like your treasured Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosols and fuels, are also restricted.
What to wear on a flight:
- Your main priority is to be as comfortable as you can. Pick shoes that are easy to pull on and off, dress in loose, natural-fiber clothing and don't forget to take a jacket in case it gets chilly in the cabin.
- Caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers on long-haul flights. Lower your risks by drinking water, keeping your ankles and legs moving and wearing compression socks to help your circulation.
