Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Windsor could be completely painless or it could drag on forever. We've put together some useful tips that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- First and foremost, pack your passport, travel docs, credit cards and medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the time. A juicy book and a laptop crammed with your favorite shows are good options. If you intend to catch up on some sleep, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, leave some space for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes so you'll touchdown feeling fresh and ready to go.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Pointed or sharp objects, like your treasured Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, chemicals agents and fuels, are also banned.
What to wear on a flight:
- Your top priority is to feel as comfortable as possible. Pick easy-to-remove footwear, dress in loose, natural fibers and remember to take a sweater in case it gets cold in the cabin.
- Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by lengthy periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Wander around the cabin and stretch your legs or do some simple exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.
