We've got the lowdown on how to make your flight as pain-free as possible. Follow our tips and you'll be speeding through the airport and having a ball in Pasohlávky in no time. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Travelling on a plane can be a cruisy experience if you've got all the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want some toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a spare pair of socks and a good book. Secondly, make room in your bag for your electronic devices, chargers, any vital medications and maybe a cosy neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, remember to bring your passport, travel documents and your bank cards.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Check carefully that you don't have sharp or pointed objects hiding in one of the compartments of your carry-on luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable products, such as aerosol cans and bleach, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).
What to wear on a flight:
- The aisles of an aircraft are no place for a fashion parade. Layer your clothing and opt for shoes that are flat and easy to slip on and off.
- The result of lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers during long-distance flights. Lower your risks by drinking water, keeping your legs and ankles moving and wearing compression socks to help improve your circulation.
