No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a pleasurable experience if you're well prepared. We've compiled a list of handy hints that will get your Yicheng escape started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Air travel can be a comfortable experience if you take the right gear. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as lip balm and hand cream, a clean set of clothes and a good novel. Secondly, find a spot in your carry-on bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, your medications and maybe a quality neck pillow as well. Lastly, be sure to bring your passport, travel documents and your credit cards.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Check carefully that you don't have a pocket knife lurking in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other banned items include explosive or flammable substances, such as bleach and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort should be your main priority when deciding what to wear during your flight. Loose clothing is a wise choice, as are flat, slightly roomy shoes.
- Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to walk around the cabin and stretch your legs or do some simple exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.
