No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you've planned ahead. We've made a list of essential travel tips that will get your Pati vacation started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- A plane trip can be a comfortable experience if you carry the right gear. First of all you'll need toiletry items, such as toothpaste, a toothbrush and some deodorant, a clean set of clothes and a few magazines. Next, make room in your hand luggage for your mobile phone, a charger, your important medications and maybe a comfy neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, remember to bring your passport, travel documents and your bank cards.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of banned items differs between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like tools, metal cutlery, fireworks and fuel. Sports equipment like hockey sticks, and items that could harm passengers, such as swords and guns, are also banned from the cabin.
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort should be your top priority when deciding what to wear on your flight. Loose clothing is a smart choice, as are flat, closed-toe shoes.
- Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by extended periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Wander around the cabin and stretch your legs or do some gentle exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.
