If you're not prepared, airports and flying can be challenging. But there's no need to panic. Follow these handy tips for a pleasant start to your time in Sjoa. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- It's simple — first, pack your passport, official ID, bank cards and medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling novel and a phone crammed with your favorite movies are some great options. If you plan to take a short nap, a comfy neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some facial wipes to ensure you step off the plane looking and feeling fresh.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Squeeze 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) won't be allowed on. Sharp or pointed objects, like your Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosols and fireworks, are also prohibited.
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort should be your highest priority when deciding what to wear during your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a sensible choice, as are flat, enclosed shoes.
- Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a potential risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to poor circulation and inactivity, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks.
