No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you're well organized. We've compiled a list of handy travel tips that will help get your Trade escape started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- It's easy — first, pack your passport, travel docs, bank cards 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 hope to take a short snooze, a neck pillow and some noise-canceling headphones will also be useful. Finally, squeeze in a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes so you'll arrive looking fresh and raring to go.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Make sure you don't have a Swiss Army knife lurking in the bottom of your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive substances, like aerosols and matches, and gels and liquids in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort should always be your number one priority when choosing what to wear on board. Consider your footwear choice with care too, as swollen feet and ankles can be a side effect of flying. Slightly roomy, flat shoes are always a sensible way to go.
- It's likely you've heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by reduced mobility or inactivity. There are many ways to lower your risk. Wear compression socks or tights, drink lots of water and keep your legs and feet moving. Wander around the cabin or perform some simple exercises in your seat.
