Wherever you’re coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you’re well organized. Take a peek at these handy tips that will help get your Bay Springs escape started on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- It’s simple — first, pack your passport, travel documents, bank cards and daily medications. Next, you’ll want some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy novel and a phone filled with your favorite movies are some wonderful options. If you hope to take a quick nap, a quality neck pillow and some noise-canceling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes to ensure you hop 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 suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp objects, like your beloved pocket knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and strong acids, are also not allowed.
What to wear on a flight:
- The answer to a comfortable flight is as simple as the clothes you wear. Prepare yourself for varying temperatures by bringing layers. That way you’ll stay nice and warm if the cabin gets too cold. Shoes like sandals and heels are best left for other occasions. Instead, opt for flat, closed-toed footwear like slip-ons. Your feet will thank you for it.
- The result of sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers during long-haul flights. The good news is there are ways to reduce your risk of developing it. Stay well hydrated, walk around the cabin whenever possible and wear compression socks or tights.
