Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you're well organized. We've put together a list of essential travel tips that will help get your Pettorano sul Gizio escape started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- First things first, put in your passport, travel docs, cash and vital medications. Next, you'll need some in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling book and a phone filled with your favorite shows are always good options. If you hope to catch up on some sleep, a quality neck pillow and some noise-canceling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, squeeze in a toothbrush and some facial wipes to ensure you touchdown feeling fresh as a daisy.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of prohibited items differs between airlines, the general rule to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, pocket knives, spray paint and flares. Sports equipment like golf clubs, and objects that could harm passengers, such as swords and guns, won't be allowed on board either.
What to wear on a flight:
- You'll want to go for comfort over style. Prepare for changes in temperature by dressing in layers, and wear flat, easy-to-remove shoes like sneakers.
- Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to walk around the cabin or do some simple exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.
