Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a seamless experience if you're well organized. We've compiled a list of top travel tips that will get your Svankær escape started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- First, pack your passport, official ID, cash and daily medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A juicy novel and a tablet filled with your favorite shows are some terrific options. If you intend to catch forty winks, a neck pillow and some earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, leave some space for a toothbrush and some facial wipes to ensure you touchdown feeling fresh and ready to go.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of prohibited items can differ between air carriers, the general guide to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like screwdrivers, pocket knives, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sports equipment like ski poles, and items that could harm passengers, such as pepper spray and guns, aren't allowed in the cabin either.
What to wear on a flight:
- The long, narrow aisles of your plane are no fashion runway. Wear comfortable clothes and don't forget to bring a sweater as it can get chilly inside the cabin during longer flights. Flat, enclosed shoes are always a good choice too.
- It's likely you've heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of sitting. There's lots you can do to lessen your risk. Wear compression tights or socks, stay well hydrated and keep your legs and feet moving. Do a lap or two of the cabin or try out some exercises in your seat.
