We've pulled together all the info you need to make your flight a pleasant experience. Follow our tips and tricks and you'll be zooming through the airport and having a ball in Washago in next to no time.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- It's simple — first, pack your passport, official ID, bank cards and vital medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy novel and a laptop crammed with your favorite movies are always good options. If you intend to take a quick nap, a comfy neck pillow and some noise-canceling headphones will also be useful. Finally, leave some space for a toothbrush and some facial wipes so you'll touchdown feeling fresh and raring to go.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Sharp objects, like your beloved pocket knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, bleaching agents and strong acids, are also prohibited.
What to wear on a flight:
- Your goal here is to make yourself as comfortable as possible. Don layers of natural-fiber clothing and remember to bring a sweater just in case you get cold. Opt for a pair of roomy, flat shoes as your feet may swell during the journey. Leave the high heels and heavy boots in your main luggage.
- Most travelers have heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. There's plenty you can do to lessen your risk. Don a pair of compression socks, drink lots of water and keep your legs and feet moving. Walk the aisles of the cabin or try out some exercises in your seat.
