If you're poorly prepared, airports and flying can be a real challenge. But there's no need to panic. Follow these handy tips and enjoy a hassle-free start to your getaway in Lingoni.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- First things first, pack in your passport, important documents, credit cards and vital medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling book and a tablet crammed with your favorite movies are some wonderful options. If you hope to take a quick nap, a quality neck pillow and some earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some deodorant to ensure you arrive looking fresh and raring to go.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Sharp or pointed objects, like your trusty Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, flares and fireworks, are also prohibited.
What to wear on a flight:
- The long, narrow aisles of your aircraft are not the best place for a fashion parade. Layer yourself up with comfortable clothes and remember to bring a sweater as the temperature can drop in the cabin during long-haul flights. Closed-toed, flat shoes are also a good choice.
- The result of sustained periods of immobility, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a condition that can affect some passengers during long flights. The good news is there are numerous ways to significantly reduce your risk of developing it. Stay hydrated, walk around the cabin wherever possible and wear compression socks to help improve your circulation.
