Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you've prepared well enough. Check out these top travel tips that will get your Svidalen holiday started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- It's easy — first, pack your passport, official ID, bank cards and daily medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to while away the time. A juicy book and a tablet filled with your favourite shows are good options. If you hope to take a short snooze, a comfy neck pillow and some noise-cancelling headphones will also be useful. Finally, squeeze in a toothbrush and some facial wipes to ensure you hop off the plane looking fresh and raring to go.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres) won't be allowed on. Pointed or sharp objects, like your beloved pocket knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, flares and gasoline, are also banned.
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort should be your priority when choosing what to wear on your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a sensible option, as are flat, enclosed shoes.
- The result of sustained periods of immobility, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers on long-distance flights. Reduce the risks by drinking water, keeping your lower limbs moving and wearing compression socks or tights.
