Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a seamless experience if you prepare well enough. We've made a list of top travel tips that will get your Uryupinsk escape started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The secret to having a worry-free flight experience is to pack in advance. So, let's start with the essentials: passport, travel docs, credit cards and important medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you busy, like some electronic gadgets or a juicy novel. It's also smart to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. Last but not least, don't forget to pop in toiletry items like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a fresh change of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Double-check that you don't have a sharp object lurking in one of the compartments of your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive products, such as fuel and fireworks, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).
What to wear on a flight:
- The aisles of a plane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer your clothing and choose shoes that are closed-toe, flat and easy to pull on and off.
- Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to walk around the cabin and stretch your legs or do some gentle exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.
