Wherever you're jetting in from, flying can be an enjoyable experience if you're prepared. We've compiled a list of handy tips and tricks that will get your Tarrega escape started on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Flying can be a pleasure if you've got all the right things. Firstly, you'll want a few basic toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and lip balm, a fresh set of clothes and a good read. Secondly, make room in your hand luggage for your mobile phone, a charger, any daily medications and maybe a proper neck pillow as well. Lastly, remember to bring your passport, travel papers and some money.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of restricted items can differ between air carriers, the general rule to follow is avoid carrying anything flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes knives, scissors, fireworks and fuel. Sporting equipment like hockey sticks, and objects that could harm passengers, such as guns and swords, won't be allowed on board either.
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort should be your highest priority when choosing what to wear on your flight. Loose clothing is a smart choice, as are flat, slightly roomy shoes.
- Deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged inactivity, can be a risk on long-haul flights. Try to walk around the cabin or do some simple exercises in your seat to promote better circulation.
