Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Sharon Center could be as easy as pie or it could go on forever. We've put together some handy hints that will help you start your next big adventure on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The secret to having a hassle-free flight experience is to pack in advance. So, let's start with the basics: passport, travel documents, bank cards and daily medications. Next, bring items that'll help keep you entertained, like some electronic gadgets or a good book. You'll also want to pack your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones. Last but not least, be sure to pop in toiletries like a toothbrush, cleansing wipes and a clean set of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Sharp objects, like your beloved Swiss Army knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosols and strong acids, are also not allowed.
What to wear on a flight:
- Your number one priority is to feel as comfortable as possible. Layer up in natural-fiber clothing and remember to bring a pullover in case it gets cool in the cabin. Opt for a pair of roomy, flat shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell a little during the flight. Leave the stilettos and heavy hiking boots in your main luggage.
- Most of us have heard about DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of sitting. There are numerous ways to mitigate your risk. Wear a pair of compression socks, drink lots of water often and get your legs and feet moving. Wander up and down the aisles of the cabin or try out some exercises in your seat.
