No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you prepare well enough. We've made a list of handy tips and tricks that will help get your Ovre Eidfjord vacation started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The secret to having an amazing flight experience is to pack in advance. So, let's start with the basics: passport, official ID, bank cards and important medications. Next, bring items that'll help while away those hours, like your laptop or a thrilling novel. You'll also want to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Finally, don't forget to pop in toiletry items like a toothbrush, lip balm and a fresh change of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Double-check that you don't have a sharp object lurking in one of the compartments of your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive substances, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).
What to wear on a flight:
- The long, narrow aisles of your plane are no place for a fashion parade. Don comfortable layers and bring a sweater as it tends to get cool inside the cabin during long-haul flights. Closed-toed, flat shoes are also recommended.
- Most of us have heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by reduced mobility or inactivity. There are many ways to minimize your risk. Wear a pair of compression socks, drink plenty of water and remember to keep your legs and feet moving. Walk around the cabin when possible or try out some exercises in your seat.
