If you're not prepared, traveling can be testing. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these helpful hints and enjoy a trouble-free start to your time in Stewart. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The trick to having an amazing travel experience is to be prepared. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, official ID, credit cards and vital medications. Next, take on board items that'll help pass the time, like some electronic gadgets or a juicy novel. It's also smart to pack your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones. And of course, don't forget to toss in toiletries like a toothbrush, deodorant and a clean set of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Pack all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Sharp objects, like your Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, bleaching agents and fireworks, are also restricted.
What to wear on a flight:
- Go for comfort over style. Prepare for changes in temperature by donning layers, and pick flat, easy-to-remove footwear like slip-ons.
- It's likely you've heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To reduce your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression tights or socks and do gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat.
