Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Ludham could be completely stress-free or it could go on forever. Below are some useful tips that will help you start your next big adventure on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The secret to having a pain-free travel experience is to pack in advance. So, let's start with the basics: passport, travel documents, cash and important medications. Next, take on board items that'll help while away those hours, like some electronic devices or a few magazines. You'll also want to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Last but not least, don't forget to toss in toiletries like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a spare change of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of restricted items can differ between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes knives, scissors, fuels and bleaching agents. Sporting equipment like baseball bats, and items that could harm other people, such as swords and guns, aren't allowed in the cabin either.
What to wear on a flight:
- Your goal here is to make yourself as comfortable as you can. Dress in loose, breathable clothing and don't forget to pack a sweater in case it gets cool in the cabin. Go for a pair of well-fitting, flat shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell a little during the journey. Leave the high heels and heavy boots in your checked luggage.
- A serious condition called deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clots forming due to inactivity and poor circulation. Doing foot and leg exercises in your seat helps to prevent this developing. Wearing a pair of compression socks also helps reduce the risk.
