Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you're prepared. We've made a list of top travel tips that will help get your Tyaskin vacation started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- First, pack your passport, official ID, wallet and vital medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy novel and a laptop filled with your favorite movies are some terrific options. If you intend to catch forty winks, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some deodorant so you'll touchdown 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 conditioner in your checked luggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Sharp or pointed objects, like your beloved Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosols and fuels, are also prohibited.
What to wear on a flight:
- Your aim here is to feel as comfortable as you can. Layer up with loose, natural-fiber clothing and remember to pack a pullover in case it gets cool. Always go with flat, well-fitting shoes as your feet may swell during the flight. Leave the stilettos and hiking boots in your checked baggage.
- The result of lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a condition that can affect passengers during long-haul flights. But the good news is there are proven ways to significantly reduce your risk of developing it. Drink plenty of water, get up and wander the aisles as often as possible and wear compression socks or tights.
