No matter where you're coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you're well prepared. Check out these top travel tips that will help get your Losevo escape started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- A plane ride can be a pleasure if you bring the right stuff. First of all you'll need basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a spare pair of socks and a good book. Next, find room in your hand luggage for your mobile phone, a charger, any daily medications and perhaps a proper neck pillow too. Lastly, remember to bring your passport, travel docs and your credit cards.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Sharp or pointed objects, like your treasured Swiss Army knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, bleaching agents and poisons, are also restricted.
What to wear on a flight:
- The aisles of a plane are no place for a fashion parade. Dress in comfortable layers and pick shoes that are flat and easy to remove.
- Caused by sustained periods of immobility, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers during long-haul flights. Reduce the risks by staying hydrated, keeping your feet and legs moving and wearing compression socks to help improve your circulation.
