Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you've prepared well. Check out these essential travel tips that will get your Lembach vacation started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- First and foremost, put in your passport, important documents, wallet and daily medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A juicy novel and a phone crammed with your favorite movies are some wonderful options. If you intend to take a short nap, a neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also be useful. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes so you'll arrive at your destination looking fresh and ready to go.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Put all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Pointed or sharp objects, like a pocket knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, chemicals agents and fuels, are also not allowed.
What to wear on a flight:
- Your number one priority is to feel as comfortable as you can. Dress in loose, natural fibers and bring a pullover in case you get cold. Go for a pair of flat, slightly roomy shoes as your feet may swell a little during the flight. Leave the stilettos and chunky boots in your luggage.
- The result of lengthy periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers during long-haul flights. The good news is there are numerous ways to reduce the risk of developing it. Drink plenty of water, get up and walk around the cabin as much as you can and wear compression tights or socks.
