No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you're prepared. Follow these handy hints that will get your Noth vacation started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- A plane ride can be a pleasure if you take the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want some basic toiletries, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare change of clothes and a good novel. Secondly, make room in your carry-on bag for your phone and charger, any vital medications and maybe a neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, remember to take your passport, travel papers and your credit cards.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Sharp or pointed objects, like your precious pocket knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, flares and matches, are also prohibited.
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort should be your number one priority when choosing what to wear on board. Loose clothing is a wise option, as are roomy, closed-toe shoes.
- The result of lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers during long-distance flights. Lower your risks by drinking water, keeping your lower limbs moving and wearing compression tights or socks.
