Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Ligonier could be completely painless or it could go on forever. Here are some useful travel tips that will help you start your unforgettable escape on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Flying can be easy if you bring the right gear. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a fresh change of clothes and a magazine or two. Secondly, find room in your bag for your electronic devices, chargers, your medications and perhaps a proper neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, don't forget to take your passport, travel docs and your bank cards.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of prohibited items can differ between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like knives, scissors, fuels and bleaching agents. Sports equipment like bows and arrows, and items that could harm other people, such as swords and batons, aren't allowed in the cabin either.
What to wear on a flight:
- Your aim is to be as comfortable as you can. Pick easy-to-remove footwear, dress in loose, breathable clothing and don't forget to bring a jacket in case you get cold in the cabin.
- Caused by sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers on long-haul flights. Reduce the risks by drinking water, keeping your feet and legs moving and wearing compression tights or socks.
