If you're poorly prepared, air travel can be challenging. But there's no need to panic. Follow these useful tips for a pleasant start to your holiday in Köping. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- It's simple — first, pack in your passport, travel docs, bank cards and daily medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to while away the time. A thrilling book and a laptop crammed with your favourite movies are some great options. If you hope to catch up on some sleep, a neck pillow and some noise-cancelling headphones will also be useful. Finally, leave space for a few toiletry items to ensure you step off the plane feeling fresh as a daisy.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Squeeze 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 millilitres) won't be allowed on. Sharp or pointed objects, like your trusty pocket knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, bleaching agents and gasoline, are also not allowed.
What to wear on a flight:
- You'll want to go for comfort over style. Prepare for temperature changes in the cabin by layering up, and wear closed-toe, flat shoes like sneakers.
- Caused by sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clot condition that can affect passengers during long-distance flights. Reduce the risks by staying hydrated, keeping your ankles and legs moving and wearing compression tights or socks.
