We've rounded up all the info you need to make your flight as stress-free as possible. Follow our tips and you'll be zooming through the airport and having a blast in Golinhac before you know it. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- First of all, put in your passport, travel docs, bank cards and daily medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy book and a tablet filled with your favourite movies are some terrific options. If you intend to catch more than just forty winks, a quality neck pillow and some noise-cancelling headphones will also be useful. Finally, leave some space for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes so you'll step off the plane looking fresh and ready to go.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of restricted items differs between airlines, the general rule of thumb is avoid carrying anything sharp, flammable or explosive. This includes knives, scissors, fireworks and fuel. Sporting equipment like ice skates, and items that could harm passengers, such as swords and batons, aren't allowed in the cabin either.
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort should be your highest priority when choosing what to wear during your flight. Loose clothing is a smart choice, as are enclosed shoes like sneakers.
- Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by extended periods of inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Wander around the cabin and stretch your legs or do some gentle exercises in your seat to improve your circulation.
