If you're poorly prepared, airports and flying can be tough. But there's no need to hit the panic button just yet. Follow these tips and tricks and enjoy a hassle-free start to your vacation in Zorianos.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- It's simple — first, put in your passport, official ID, cash and daily medications. Next, you'll need some in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling novel and a laptop crammed with your favorite movies are some fantastic options. If you hope to catch forty winks, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, make room for a few toiletry items to ensure you touchdown looking and feeling fresh.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp or pointed objects, like your pocket knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, chemicals agents and fireworks, are also prohibited.
What to wear on a flight:
- The narrow aisles of an airplane are not the best place for a fashion parade. Wear comfortable clothes and remember to take a sweater as it can get chilly in the cabin on long-haul flights. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are also a good idea.
- Most of us 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. Wear a quality pair of compression tights or socks, stay well hydrated and keep your legs and feet moving. Walk around the cabin when possible or perform exercises in your seat.
