Wherever you’re jetting in from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you’ve prepared well enough. We’ve put together a list of essential travel tips that will help get your Galati escape started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The secret to having a worry-free flight experience is to pack in advance. So, let’s start with the essentials: passport, boarding pass, cash and any vital medications. Next, bring items that’ll help keep you busy, like your laptop or a few magazines. You’ll also want to pack your chargers, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of headphones. Last but not least, be sure to chuck in toiletries like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a clean T-shirt.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Put 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. Sharp objects, like your precious pocket knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosols and fireworks, are also restricted.
What to wear on a flight:
- The answer to a comfortable flight is as simple as your choice of clothes. Prepare yourself for varying temperatures by bringing layers. This will keep you nice and warm if the cabin starts to cool down. Shoes like high heels and sandals are best left in your suitcase. Even though they may be your favorites, go for flat, closed-toed footwear like sneakers. Your feet will thank you for it.
- The result of lengthy periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers during long-haul flights. The good news is there are numerous ways to reduce your risk of developing it. Drink plenty of water, get up and wander the aisles wherever possible and wear compression socks or tights.
