Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Cloughey could be as easy as pie or it could go on forever. We've compiled some handy tips that will help you start your next great adventure on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- First things first, put in your passport, travel documents, credit cards and daily medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to help pass the time. A thrilling book and a phone filled with your favourite shows are some fantastic options. If you plan to catch a few z's, a neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, squeeze in a toothbrush and some deodorant to ensure you step off the plane feeling fresh and raring to go.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of prohibited items can differ between air carriers, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes knives, scissors, aerosol cans and flares. Sports equipment like ski poles, and items that could harm other people, such as firearms and swords, won't be allowed on board either.
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort should be your priority when choosing what to wear during your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a wise choice, as are flat, slip-on shoes.
- The result of lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers on long-haul flights. Lower your risks by drinking water, keeping your legs and ankles moving and wearing compression socks to help improve your circulation.
