Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you've planned ahead. Take a peek at these top travel tips that will get your Plescop vacation started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The secret to having an amazing travel experience is to plan ahead. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, official ID, cash and daily medications. Next, bring items that'll help keep you busy, like some electronic devices or a good book. It's also wise to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones. Finally, be sure to squeeze in toiletry items like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a clean set of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of banned items differs between air carriers, the general rule to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes box cutters, razor blades, fuel and fireworks. Sporting equipment like bows and arrows, and objects that could harm other people, such as guns and swords, aren't allowed in the cabin either.
What to wear on a flight:
- The narrow aisles of a plane are not the best place for a fashion parade. Wear comfortable clothes and remember to take a cardigan as it can get chilly in the cabin on long-haul flights. Slightly roomy, flat shoes are also a good choice.
- Most of us have heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of inactivity. There are numerous ways to reduce your risk. Wear a good-quality pair of compression tights or socks, stay hydrated and remember to keep your legs and feet moving. Do a few laps of the cabin or perform some stretches in your seat.
