- Traveling on a plane can be a comfortable experience if you pack the right things. First things first, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare change of clothes and something to read. Next, find room in your hand luggage for your phone and charger, any daily medications and maybe a neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, remember to bring your passport, travel docs and some money.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of banned items can differ between airlines, the general rule to follow is nothing sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes things like box cutters, razor blades, fireworks and fuel. Sporting equipment like golf clubs, and objects that could harm passengers, such as pepper spray and guns, aren't allowed in the cabin either.
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort should be your main priority when deciding what to wear on your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a smart option, as are enclosed shoes like sneakers.
- Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by extended periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to walk around the cabin and stretch your legs or do some simple exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.
