If you’re not prepared, travelling can be tough. But there’s no need to hit the panic button just yet. Follow these handy hints and enjoy a hassle-free start to your time in Wallingford.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- It’s simple — first, put in your passport, travel docs, credit cards and vital medications. Next, you’ll want some entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy novel and a laptop filled with your favourite shows are some fantastic options. If you hope to catch forty winks, a comfy neck pillow and some earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, squeeze in a toothbrush and some deodorant to ensure you arrive at your destination looking and feeling fresh.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Put 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. Sharp objects, like your treasured pocket knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, flares and strong acids, are also restricted.
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort really should be the goal when picking what to wear during your flight. Consider your footwear with care too, as swollen feet are a common side effect of flying. Flat, slightly roomy shoes are always a smart option.
- Most of us have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by long periods of inactivity. There’s lots you can do to lessen your risk. Wear a quality pair of compression socks or tights, drink plenty of water and keep your legs and feet moving. Wander up and down the aisles of the cabin or try out some simple stretches in your seat.
