If you're poorly prepared, airports and flying can be challenging. But don't hit the panic button just yet. Follow these handy tips for a pleasant start to your time in Yeruham.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Air travel can be easy if you take the right things. Firstly, you'll want some toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a clean pair of socks and a good read. Next, leave space in your hand luggage for your laptop, a charger, any daily medications and maybe a blow-up neck pillow too. Lastly, remember to take your passport, travel papers and some cash.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Check carefully that you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) lurking in one of the compartments of your hand luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive products, 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:
- The key to a comfortable flight is often as simple as your choice in clothes. Prepare for changes in temperature by bringing layers. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin begins to cool down. Shoes like flip flops and heels are best left in your checked suitcase. Instead, go for flat, closed-toed footwear like sneakers. Your feet will thank you for it.
- You've probably heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by reduced mobility or inactivity. There are many ways to lower your risk. Wear a good-quality pair of compression tights or socks, drink plenty of water and keep your legs and feet moving. Wander around the cabin or perform exercises in your seat.
