If you’re poorly prepared, airports and flying can be a real challenge. But there’s no need to panic. Follow these tips and tricks and enjoy a comfortable start to your vacation in Chomoni.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- It’s simple — first, pack your passport, travel docs, credit cards and daily medications. Next, you’ll want some in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling book and a phone filled with your favorite shows are some great options. If you intend to catch up on some sleep, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also be useful. Finally, leave space for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes to ensure you hop off the plane looking fresh and raring to go.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Pack all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Sharp objects, like your beloved Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and matches, are also restricted.
What to wear on a flight:
- The main aim is to feel as comfortable as you can. Layer up with loose, breathable clothing and bring a jacket in case it gets chilly in the cabin. Pick a pair of flat, slightly roomy shoes as it’s possible that your feet and ankles will swell a little during the flight. Leave the high heels and hiking boots in your main luggage.
- Most travelers are aware of DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clotting condition caused by reduced mobility or inactivity. There are many ways to reduce your risk. Wear compression socks or tights, drink plenty of water and move your legs and feet. Walk the aisles of the cabin or perform some stretches in your seat.
