We've got the lowdown on how to make your journey a pleasant experience. Follow our insider tips and you'll be cruising through the airport and seeing the best of Lapshinskoe before you know it. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The secret to having an awesome travel experience is to plan ahead. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, official ID, cash and vital medications. Next, take on board items that'll help pass the time, like some electronic devices or a few magazines. It's also smart to pack your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of earphones. Last but not least, be sure to pop in toiletries like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a clean set of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Sharp or pointed objects, like your beloved Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and strong acids, are also not allowed.
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort should be your main priority when choosing what to wear on board. Loose, breathable clothing is a smart option, as are flat, closed-toe shoes.
- Most travelers are aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of inactivity. To minimize your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression socks and move your legs and feet often.
