If you're poorly prepared, air travel can be daunting. But there's no need to worry. Follow these useful tips for a hassle-free start to your time in Londa. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- First, pack in your passport, travel documents, wallet and medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling book and a phone crammed with your favorite shows are some fantastic options. If you hope to catch more than just forty winks, a neck pillow and some earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, leave some space for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes so you'll step off the plane looking fresh and ready to go.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Sharp or pointed objects, like your precious pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as spray paint, flares and fuels, are also restricted.
What to wear on a flight:
- Your priority is to feel as comfortable as you can. Pick a pair of slip-on shoes, dress in loose, breathable clothing and remember to bring a pullover in case it gets chilly in the cabin.
- Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to poor circulation and inactivity, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks.
