- A plane trip can be easy if you've got all the right stuff. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as toothpaste, a toothbrush and some deodorant, a spare set of clothes and something to read. Next, make room in your hand luggage for your electronic devices, chargers, any daily medications and maybe a cozy neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, be sure to bring your passport, travel documents and some cash.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of restricted items differs between airlines, the general rule to follow is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, knives, spray paint and flares. Sporting equipment like ski poles, and objects that could harm other people, such as firearms and swords, are also banned from the cabin.
What to wear on a flight:
- You'll want to choose comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes in the cabin by wearing layers, and opt for closed-toe, flat footwear like sneakers.
- Most travelers have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. To reduce your risk on board, drink lots of water, consider wearing compression tights or socks and move your legs and feet often.
