- A plane ride can be a pleasure if you pack the right stuff. Firstly, you'll want a few basic toiletry items, such as toothpaste, a toothbrush and some deodorant, a clean pair of socks and a magazine or two. Secondly, find a spot in your bag for your mobile phone, a charger, medications and perhaps a blow-up neck pillow as well. Lastly, be sure to bring your passport, travel documents and some money.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of banned items can differ between airlines, the general rule to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like knives, scissors, aerosol cans and flares. Sports equipment like ski poles, and items that could injure passengers, such as swords and batons, aren't allowed in the cabin either.
What to wear on a flight:
- Go for comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes by donning layers, and pick flat, closed-toe footwear like slip-ons.
- The result of sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect some passengers during long flights. Lower your risks by staying hydrated, keeping your legs and feet moving and wearing compression socks to help your circulation.
