Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a seamless experience if you're prepared. Follow these top travel tips that will get your Nea Vissa vacation started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- A plane trip can be a cruisy experience if you've got all the right things. Firstly, you'll want some basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and some deodorant, a spare set of clothes and a good novel. Secondly, find a spot in your bag for your phone and charger, any daily medications and maybe a neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to take your passport, travel docs and some cash.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Sharp objects, like your pocket knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosols and gasoline, are also banned.
What to wear on a flight:
- Your number one priority is to make yourself as comfortable as possible. Layer yourself up in natural fibers and remember to bring a cardigan just in case you get cold. Pick a pair of roomy, flat shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell during the flight. Leave the stilettos and heavy boots in your checked baggage.
- Unfortunately, one risk of long-haul flights is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity. To prevent this from happening, take every opportunity to walk around and give your legs a stretch. Compression socks and tights are another easy way to help lower your risk.
