Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Mica could be a piece of cake or it could go on forever. Below are some handy travel tips that will help you start your unforgettable escape on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Air travel can be easy if you take the right things. Firstly, you'll want a few toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a spare set of clothes and something to read. Next, find room in your carry-on bag for your laptop, a charger, any daily medications and perhaps a quality neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, be sure to take your passport, travel papers and some money.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of restricted items can differ between airlines, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, drills, spray paint and fireworks. Sports equipment like ice skates, and items that could harm other people, such as pepper spray and firearms, aren't allowed in the cabin either.
What to wear on a flight:
- Choose comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes by layering up, and wear easy-to-remove shoes like sneakers.
- You're probably aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of inactivity. To minimize your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression tights or socks and do gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat.
