- The trick to having a great flight experience is to plan ahead. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, travel documents, credit cards and medications. Next, take on board items that'll help while away those hours, like some electronic devices or a good book. You'll also want to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of earphones. Last but not least, don't forget to chuck in toiletry items like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a clean set of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Sharp or pointed objects, like your beloved pocket knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, chemicals agents and gasoline, are also banned.
What to wear on a flight:
- The narrow aisles of your aircraft are no place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfy clothing and bring a sweater as it can get chilly in the cabin on long-haul flights. Flat, enclosed shoes are always a good idea too.
- Caused by sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a condition that can affect passengers during long-haul flights. The great news is there are ways to significantly reduce your risk of developing it. Keep your fluids up, wander through the cabin as often as you can and wear compression socks to help improve your circulation.
