Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Vitvattnet could be a piece of cake or it could drag on forever. We've rounded up some handy tips that will help you start your next big adventure on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Traveling on a plane can be a stress-free experience if you take the right things. First of all you'll need basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a fresh set of clothes and a good novel. Next, find room in your bag for your electronic devices, chargers, any medications and perhaps a neck pillow as well. Lastly, remember to take your passport, travel docs and some cash.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Pointed or sharp objects, like your pocket knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as spray paint, flares and fuels, are also banned.
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort really should be your prime concern when choosing what to wear during your flight. Consider your footwear choice with care too, as swelling of the feet and ankles are quite common. Flat shoes which are slightly roomy are always a good idea.
- It's likely you've heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of inactivity. There's plenty you can do to lower your risk. Wear a pair of compression socks or tights, drink plenty of water and remember to keep your legs and feet moving. Walk the aisles of the cabin or perform some simple exercises in your seat.
