Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a seamless experience if you're well prepared. Take a peek at these handy travel tips that will help get your Petyakovo vacation started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The secret to having a great travel experience is to pack ahead. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, travel docs, credit cards and medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you entertained, like some electronic gadgets or a thrilling book. It's also a wise idea to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones. Finally, be sure to squeeze in toiletry items like a toothbrush, lip balm and a fresh change of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Pointed or sharp objects, like your trusty pocket knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as spray paint, flares and poisons, are also restricted.
What to wear on a flight:
- Your main aim is to be as comfortable as possible. Go for shoes that are easy to slip on and off, dress in loose, natural-fiber clothing and don't forget to take a jacket in case you get chilly in the cabin.
- Most travelers are aware of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To lessen your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression socks and do gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat.
