Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you're prepared. Take a peek at these handy hints that will get your Prinos escape started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Travelling on a plane can be a pleasure if you take the right stuff. First things first, you'll need toiletry items, such as deodorant and a toothbrush, a spare set of clothes and a few magazines. Secondly, find a spot in your carry-on bag for your electronic devices, chargers, any medications and perhaps a comfy neck pillow as well. Lastly, and most importantly, be sure to bring your passport, travel papers and your credit cards.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of restricted items can differ between airlines, the general rule to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes screwdrivers, knives, aerosol cans and bleaching agents. Sports equipment like ski poles, and items that could injure passengers, such as swords and guns, are also banned from the cabin.
What to wear on a flight:
- You'll want to choose comfort over style. Prepare for changes in temperature by layering up, and wear slightly roomy, flat footwear like sneakers.
- Caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers on long-distance flights. Lower your risks by staying hydrated, keeping your ankles and legs moving and wearing compression tights or socks.
