Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you've prepared well enough. We've put together a list of handy hints that will get your Sennori vacation started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Air travel can be a pleasure if you bring the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want a few basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and some deodorant, a spare set of clothes and a magazine or two. Secondly, make room in your hand luggage for your electronic gadgets, chargers, any daily medications and maybe a neck pillow too. Lastly, don't forget to bring your passport, travel documents and some cash.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Pointed or sharp objects, like your treasured pocket knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, chemicals agents and poisons, are also banned.
What to wear on a flight:
- The aisles of an airplane are no fashion runway. Layer up with comfortable clothing and don't forget to bring a sweater as the temperature can drop in the cabin on long-haul flights. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are also recommended.
- Unfortunately, one risk of long-distance travel is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by extended periods of inactivity. To prevent this, take every opportunity to stretch your legs and walk around the cabin. Compression tights and socks are another simple way to help reduce this risk.
