We've got the lowdown on how to make your flight a pleasant experience. Follow our tips and you'll be zooming through airport security and having a blast in Lewellen in next to no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The secret to having a hassle-free travel experience is to be prepared. First up, the essentials: passport, travel docs, cash and vital medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help while away those hours, like your laptop or a thrilling book. It's also smart to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. And of course, don't forget to pop in toiletries like a toothbrush, lip balm and a spare change of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Make sure you don't have a sharp object lurking in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable goods, such as fuel and matches, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).
What to wear on a flight:
- The aisles of a plane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfy clothing and choose shoes that are flat, enclosed and easy to pull on and off.
- Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-distance flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to poor circulation, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks.
