No matter where you're coming from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you're well prepared. Check out these essential travel tips that will get your Marore escape started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Flying can be a stress-free experience if you bring the right things. First of all you'll need toiletry items, such as toothpaste, a toothbrush and some deodorant, a spare set of clothes and a magazine or two. Secondly, make room in your hand luggage for your electronic gadgets, chargers, any medications and perhaps a blow-up neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, remember to take your passport, travel papers and some money.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Check carefully that you don't have sharp or pointed objects hiding in your hand luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive substances, 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:
- Comfort should always be your main priority when choosing what to wear on board. Consider your choice of footwear with care too, as swollen feet are a common side effect of flying. Flat shoes which are slightly roomy are always a smart option.
- Most travelers are aware of DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of sitting. There's lots you can do to lessen your risk. Wear a quality pair of compression tights or socks, stay well hydrated and remember to keep your legs and feet moving. Do a few laps of the cabin or try out some simple stretches in your seat.
