If you're not prepared, traveling can be tough. But there's no need to worry. Follow these helpful hints for a pleasant start to your time in Roby.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Flying can be a great experience if you carry the right things. First things first, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a clean pair of socks and a good book. Secondly, find room in your carry-on bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, your important medications and maybe a proper neck pillow as well. Lastly, be sure to bring your passport, travel documents and some money.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Pointed or sharp objects, like a Swiss Army knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, bleaching agents and matches, are also prohibited.
What to wear on a flight:
- The goal here is to make yourself as comfortable as possible. Layer up in breathable clothing and take a jacket just in case you get cold. Opt for a pair of roomy, flat shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell a little during the journey. Leave the stilettos and chunky boots in your checked luggage.
- A serious condition by the name of DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to poor circulation and inactivity. Walking up and down the aisle and doing leg and foot exercises while seated helps to prevent this developing. Wearing a good pair of compression tights or socks also helps reduce your risk.
