Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Sutton on Trent could be simple and straightforward or it could go on forever. Below are some handy hints that will help you start your next great escape on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- It's easy — first, pack in your passport, official ID, wallet and medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling novel and a tablet crammed with your favorite shows are some wonderful options. If you hope to catch forty winks, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, squeeze in a toothbrush and some deodorant so you'll arrive feeling fresh and ready to go.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of prohibited items differs between air carriers, the general guide to follow is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes tools, metal cutlery, spray paint and flares. Sports equipment like baseball bats, and objects that could injure passengers, such as guns and swords, can't come on board with you either.
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort should always be your prime concern when picking what to wear during your flight. Consider your choice of footwear with care too, as swollen ankles and feet are a common occurrence. Roomy, closed-toed shoes are always a sensible way to go.
- Most of us have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. There's plenty you can do to minimize your risk. Wear compression socks, drink lots of water and remember to keep your legs and feet moving. Walk around the cabin when possible or perform some simple exercises in your seat.
