Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Manno could be simple and straightforward or it could drag on forever. Here are some useful hints that will help you start your next great escape on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The secret to having a pain-free travel experience is to plan ahead. So, let's start with the basics: passport, official ID, credit cards and any vital medications. Next, take on board items that'll help pass the time, like some electronic devices or a thrilling novel. It's also wise to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Finally, don't forget to squeeze in toiletries like a toothbrush, lip balm and a fresh change of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Pointed or sharp objects, like your precious Swiss Army knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and matches, are also restricted.
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort should always be your number one priority when selecting what to wear on your flight. Consider your footwear with care too, as swollen feet and ankles are a common side effect of flying. Slightly roomy, flat shoes are your best bet.
- Most of us have heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by reduced mobility or inactivity. There's plenty you can do to lessen your risk. Wear a quality pair of compression socks or tights, drink plenty of water and remember to keep your legs and feet moving. Walk around the cabin when possible or perform some stretches in your seat.
