Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Østervrå could be as easy as pie or it could go on forever. Below are some useful hints that will help you start your next big adventure on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Traveling on a plane can be a great experience if you pack the right stuff. First of all you'll need basic toiletries, such as toothpaste, a toothbrush and some deodorant, a fresh set of clothes and something to read. Secondly, make room in your bag for your mobile phone, a charger, any vital medications and perhaps a comfy neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, remember to take your passport, travel papers and some money.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of prohibited items differs between airlines, the general guide to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes knives, scissors, fuels and bleaching agents. Sporting equipment like hockey sticks, and objects that could injure passengers, such as firearms and swords, aren't allowed in the cabin either.
What to wear on a flight:
- The goal here is to feel as comfortable as possible. Layer yourself up in natural-fiber clothing and take a sweater in case it gets cool. Always opt for well-fitting, flat shoes as your feet may swell during the journey. Leave the high heels and heavy hiking boots in your checked baggage.
- Caused by sustained periods of immobility, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a serious condition that can affect passengers during long flights. But the good news is there are numerous ways to significantly reduce your risk of developing it. Keep your fluids up, walk up and down the aisles whenever possible and wear compression tights or socks.
