- The trick to having an amazing travel experience is to plan ahead. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, boarding pass, cash and medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help keep you occupied, like some electronic devices or a good read. It's also smart to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones. Last but not least, don't forget to chuck in toiletries like a toothbrush, lip balm and a clean T-shirt.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of restricted items can differ between airlines, the general rule to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, drills, spray paint and flares. Sporting equipment like hockey sticks, and objects that could harm other people, such as firearms and ammunition, won't be allowed on board either.
What to wear on a flight:
- Your main priority is to be as comfortable as you can. Choose a pair of flat, closed-toe shoes, dress in loose, natural-fiber clothing and don't forget to take a pullover in case you get chilly in the cabin.
- Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It results from blood clots forming due to poor circulation and inactivity, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks or tights.
