If you're poorly prepared, traveling can be overwhelming. But there's no need to hit the panic button just yet. Follow these handy tips and enjoy a pain-free start to your time in Neavitt.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The trick to having an awesome travel experience is to plan ahead. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, boarding pass, bank cards and important medications. Next, bring items that'll help keep you occupied, like some electronic gadgets or a thrilling novel. It's also wise to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. And of course, don't forget to pop in toiletries like a toothbrush, lip balm and a fresh set of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of restricted items differs between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, blades, aerosol cans and flares. Sports equipment like ice skates, and objects that could harm passengers, such as firearms and swords, won't be allowed on board either.
What to wear on a flight:
- The aisles of your airplane are no fashion runway. Layer yourself up with comfortable clothes and bring a sweater as it can get quite cool inside the cabin on long-haul flights. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are also a sensible choice.
- A serious condition known as DVT (deep vein thrombosis) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to poor circulation. Walking up and down the aisle and doing foot and leg exercises in your seat helps to prevent this from occurring. Wearing a good-quality pair of compression socks also helps reduce your risk.
