- Air travel can be a comfortable experience if you've got all the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want some toiletry items, such as toothpaste, a toothbrush and some deodorant, a spare change of clothes and a good read. Next, leave space in your bag for your laptop, a charger, your medications and maybe a neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, remember to take your passport, travel papers and your bank cards.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Pointed or sharp objects, like your pocket knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, chemicals agents and strong acids, are also not allowed.
What to wear on a flight:
- The narrow aisles of your aircraft are not the best place for a fashion parade. Layer up with comfy clothing and don't forget to bring a cardigan as it can get quite cool inside the cabin. Flat, enclosed shoes are always a good choice too.
- Caused by sustained periods of immobility, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a serious condition that can affect passengers during long flights. The great news is there are ways to significantly reduce your risk of developing it. Stay hydrated, walk around the cabin as much as possible and wear compression socks or tights.
