Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Silvi could be completely painless or it could go on forever. Here are some handy tips that will help you start your next great escape on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- First of all, pack your passport, important documents, bank cards and medications. Next, you'll need some in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A thrilling novel and a phone crammed with your favourite movies are some wonderful options. If you plan to take a quick nap, a comfy neck pillow and some earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, squeeze in a toothbrush and some deodorant so you'll step off the plane feeling fresh and raring to go.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) will be confiscated. Pointed or sharp objects, like a Swiss Army knife, and products which are flammable or explosive, such as flares, chemicals agents and poisons, are also not allowed.
What to wear on a flight:
- The aisles of an airplane are no place for a fashion parade. Layer your clothing and opt for shoes that are flat, roomy and easy to take on and off.
- Caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers on long-distance flights. Lower your risks by staying hydrated, keeping your lower limbs moving and wearing compression socks or tights.
