- Flying can be a cruisy experience if you carry the right stuff. Firstly, you’ll want some toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare set of clothes and a few magazines. Next, leave space in your bag for your mobile phone, a charger, any vital medications and maybe a proper neck pillow as well. Lastly, don’t forget to take your passport, travel docs and some money.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Leave 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 authorities. Pointed or sharp objects, like your trusty Swiss Army knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, chemicals agents and fuels, are also banned.
What to wear on a flight:
- The best way to ensure a comfortable flight is as simple as your choice of clothing. Prepare for temperature changes by bringing layers. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin gets chilly. Shoes like high heels and sandals are best left in your checked suitcase. Instead, opt for flat, closed-toed footwear like sneakers. Your feet will appreciate it.
- The result of sustained periods of immobility, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a serious condition that can affect passengers on long-distance flights. The great news is there are proven ways to significantly reduce your risk of developing it. Stay hydrated, wander around the cabin wherever possible and wear compression socks to help improve your circulation.
