Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Deer Lake could be no sweat at all or it could go on forever. Below are some handy tips that will help you start your next big adventure on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- It's simple — first, put in your passport, travel documents, wallet and medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling book and a phone crammed with your favorite movies are some terrific options. If you intend to take a quick snooze, a neck pillow and a pair of earplugs will also be useful. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes to ensure you arrive at your destination looking fresh and raring to go.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Make sure you don't have sharp objects (like a pocket knife) hiding in one of the compartments of your hand luggage. Other restricted items include explosive or flammable goods, such as fuel and fireworks, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).
What to wear on a flight:
- The long, narrow aisles of an airplane are not the best place for a fashion parade. Layer yourself up with comfortable clothes and take a cardigan as it tends to get cool in the cabin during long-haul flights. Slightly roomy, flat shoes are always a good idea too.
- Unfortunately, one risk of flying long distances is developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by extended periods of inactivity. To prevent this, take every opportunity to walk around and give your legs a stretch. Compression tights and socks are another easy way to help minimize this risk.
