Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Mirande could be a breeze or it could drag on forever. We've pulled together some useful hints that will help you start your next big adventure on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- First, pack in your passport, official ID, cash and medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to while away the time. A juicy novel and a tablet filled with your favorite movies are some great options. If you hope to catch a few z's, a comfy neck pillow and some earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, squeeze in a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes to ensure you arrive at your destination looking fresh and raring to go.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Sharp or pointed objects, like your precious Swiss Army knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as spray paint, flares and gasoline, are also not allowed.
What to wear on a flight:
- The long, narrow aisles of your aircraft are not the best place for a fashion parade. Wear comfortable clothes and take a cardigan as it tends to get cool in the cabin during long-haul flights. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are also recommended.
- The result of sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers on long-haul flights. But the good news is there are ways to reduce the risk of developing it. Stay well hydrated, wander through the cabin wherever possible and wear compression socks or tights.
