- The secret to having an awesome travel experience is to pack in advance. First up, the essentials: passport, official ID, bank cards and daily medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you occupied, like some electronic devices or a few magazines. It's also smart to pack your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Last but not least, be sure to chuck in toiletry items like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a clean T-shirt.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Pointed or sharp objects, like your trusty Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and fuels, are also restricted.
What to wear on a flight:
- The narrow aisles of a plane are not the place for a fashion parade. Layer yourself up with comfortable clothes and take a cardigan as the temperature can drop inside the cabin during longer flights. Enclosed, flat shoes are always a good idea too.
- You've probably heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of sitting. There are plenty of ways to reduce your risk. Don a pair of compression tights or socks, drink plenty of water and move your legs and feet. Wander up and down the aisles of the cabin or try out some exercises in your seat.
