Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Ortonville could be no sweat at all or it could go on forever. We've compiled some useful travel tips that will help you start your unforgettable escape on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- It's easy — first, pack in your passport, important documents, credit cards and vital medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy book and a laptop filled with your favorite shows are good options. If you hope to take a short nap, a neck pillow and some noise-canceling headphones will also be useful. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes so you'll hop off the plane looking fresh and raring to go.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Pack all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Sharp objects, like your precious Swiss Army knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, bleaching agents and matches, are also not allowed.
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort really should be your number one priority when deciding what to wear during your flight. Consider your footwear with care too, as swollen feet are quite common. Flat shoes which are slightly roomy are your best bet.
- The result of sustained periods of immobility, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a serious condition that can affect passengers during long-haul flights. But the great news is there are proven ways to significantly reduce the risk of developing it. Keep your fluids up, walk around the cabin as much as possible and wear compression socks to help improve your circulation.
