Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Rüti bei Riggisberg could be a breeze or it could drag on forever. We've pulled together some tips that will help you start your unforgettable escape on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- A plane trip can be a comfortable experience if you carry the right stuff. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletries, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a fresh change of clothes and something to read. Secondly, find room in your carry-on bag for your electronic devices, chargers, any medications and maybe a quality neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, remember to bring your passport, travel docs and some cash.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Pointed or sharp objects, like your trusty pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, bleaching agents and gasoline, are also prohibited.
What to wear on a flight:
- The key to a comfortable flight is as simple as your clothing choices. Prepare for changes in temperature by layering up. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin gets chilly. Shoes like high heels and sandals are best left for other occasions. Even though they may be your favorites, go for flat, closed-toed footwear like slip-ons. Your feet will appreciate it.
- Caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a serious condition that can affect some passengers on long-distance flights. The great news is there are numerous ways to reduce your risk of developing it. Drink plenty of water, get up and walk around the cabin as much as possible and wear compression socks or tights.
