Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Skillingaryd could be completely painless or it could drag on forever. Below are some useful tips that will help you start your next great escape on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- First things first, put in your passport, travel docs, bank cards and vital medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy book and a tablet crammed with your favorite movies are good options. If you hope to take a short nap, a quality neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, squeeze in a few toiletry items to ensure you touchdown feeling fresh and raring to go.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of banned items can differ between airlines, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like knives, scissors, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sporting equipment like baseball bats, and objects that could injure passengers, such as firearms and ammunition, won't be allowed on board either.
What to wear on a flight:
- Your main priority is to feel as comfortable as you can. Choose shoes that are easy to pull on and off, dress in loose, natural fibers and don't forget to take a jacket in case you get cold in the cabin.
- Most of us have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of sitting. To lower your risk on board, drink plenty of water, consider wearing compression tights or socks and keep your legs and feet moving.
