Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Tiona could be a piece of cake or it could go on forever. We've rounded up some handy tips that will help you start your unforgettable escape on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Firstly, and most importantly, pack in your passport, important documents, wallet and daily medications. Next, you'll need some 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 more than just forty winks, a neck pillow and some earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, squeeze in a toothbrush and some facial wipes so you'll step off the plane feeling fresh as a daisy.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Sharp or pointed objects, like your trusty pocket knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, bleaching agents and fuels, are also restricted.
What to wear on a flight:
- The best way to ensure a comfortable flight is as simple as the clothes you wear. Prepare for changes in temperature by layering up. That way you'll stay nice and warm if the cabin starts to cool down. Shoes like sandals and heels are best left for other occasions. Instead, opt for flat, closed-toed footwear like slip-ons. Your feet will thank you for it.
- The result of lengthy periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers during long-haul flights. But the good news is there are proven ways to significantly reduce your risk of developing it. Stay well hydrated, wander around the cabin as often as possible and wear compression socks or tights.
