Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Side Lake could be as easy as pie or it could drag on forever. Below are some useful travel tips that will help you start your next great adventure on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The trick to having a hassle-free travel experience is to be prepared. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, travel documents, credit cards and any vital medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help pass the time, like some electronic gadgets or a few magazines. You'll also want to bring your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones. And of course, be sure to pop in toiletries like a toothbrush, deodorant and a spare set of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp or pointed objects, like your beloved Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, chemicals agents and strong acids, are also banned.
What to wear on a flight:
- The aisles of your aircraft are not the best place for a fashion parade. Wear comfortable clothes and remember to bring a cardigan as it can get chilly inside the cabin during longer flights. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are always a good choice too.
- The result of sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers during long flights. The good news is there are ways to reduce your risk of developing it. Stay hydrated, wander around the cabin as much as you can and wear compression socks to help improve your circulation.
