If you're not prepared, airports and flying can be challenging. But there's no need to panic. Follow these handy tips for a stress-free start to your vacation in Stieglitz. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Firstly, and most importantly, pack your passport, travel documents, bank cards and vital medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling novel and a laptop filled with your favorite shows are some great options. If you intend to catch forty winks, a neck pillow and some noise-canceling headphones will also be useful. Finally, leave some space for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes to ensure you arrive looking and feeling fresh.
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 gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Pointed or sharp objects, like your precious Swiss Army knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as spray paint, flares and gasoline, are also prohibited.
What to wear on a flight:
- The aisles of an airplane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfortable clothing and go for shoes that are enclosed, flat and easy to remove.
- It's likely you've heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To minimize your risk on board, stay hydrated, consider wearing compression tights or socks and keep your feet and legs moving.
