Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be a seamless experience if you're well organised. We've made a list of handy tips and tricks that will help get your Güzelyalı escape started on the right note. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- A plane trip can be a pleasure if you've got all the right things. Firstly, you'll want some basic toiletry items, such as toothpaste, a toothbrush and some deodorant, a fresh set of clothes and a few magazines. Secondly, leave space in your bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, your medications and perhaps a cosy neck pillow too. Lastly, remember to bring your passport, travel documents and your bank cards.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Double-check that you don't have sharp objects (like a knife or scissors) lurking in the bottom of your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include flammable or explosive goods, such as fuel and fireworks, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).
What to wear on a flight:
- Your aim here is to be as comfortable as possible. Opt for flat, closed-toe shoes, dress in loose, natural-fibre clothing and don't forget to take a jacket in case it gets chilly in the cabin.
- Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It's the result of blood clots forming due to poor circulation and inactivity, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks or tights.
