- The secret to having a stress-free travel experience is to pack ahead. So, let's start with the basics: passport, official ID, credit cards and vital medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you occupied, like your laptop or a thrilling novel. It's also a wise idea to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Last but not least, be sure to chuck in toiletry items like a toothbrush, lip balm and a spare set of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of prohibited items can differ between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes tools, metal cutlery, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sports equipment like ski poles, and items that could harm other people, such as swords and batons, won't be allowed on board either.
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort should always be your highest priority when choosing what to wear on your flight. Consider your footwear choice carefully too, as swollen feet are a common occurrence. Roomy, closed-toed shoes are always a smart option.
- Most travelers have heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of sitting. There's plenty you can do to reduce your risk. Don a pair of compression socks, drink lots of water and move your legs and feet. Do a few laps of the cabin or perform exercises in your seat.
