Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you've planned ahead. Follow these handy tips and tricks that will get your Markapur escape started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Air travel can be a stress-free experience if you take the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want some toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a clean pair of socks and a few magazines. Next, make room in your carry-on bag for your electronic devices, chargers, medications and perhaps a comfy neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, be sure to take your passport, travel documents and some cash.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Double-check that you don't have a Swiss Army knife lurking in your hand luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive goods, like aerosols and matches, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).
What to wear on a flight:
- The goal here is to feel as comfortable as possible. Layer yourself up in breathable clothing and pack a pullover in case you get cold. Opt for a pair of flat, slightly roomy shoes as your feet may swell during the flight. Leave the stilettos and chunky boots in your checked luggage.
- Unfortunately, a risk of long-haul flights is developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity. To prevent this from happening, make the most of every opportunity to wander around the cabin. Compression tights and socks are another great idea to help lower your risk.
