We've pulled together all the info you need to make your journey a stress-free experience. Follow our tips and you'll be speeding through airport security and having a ball in Vawkavysk before you know it.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- First things first, pack your passport, important documents, bank cards and vital medications. Next, you'll need some extra in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy novel and a laptop crammed with your favorite movies are some terrific options. If you hope to catch more than just forty winks, a neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, leave some space for a toothbrush and some facial wipes to ensure you step off the plane feeling fresh and raring to go.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Pointed or sharp objects, like your Swiss Army knife, and dangerous goods which are explosive or flammable, such as spray paint, flares and fuels, are also prohibited.
What to wear on a flight:
- The long, narrow aisles of an airplane are not the place for a fashion parade. Layer yourself up with comfortable clothes and take a cardigan as it tends to get cool inside the cabin during long-haul flights. Slightly roomy, flat shoes are also a wise idea.
- The result of lengthy periods of inactivity, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers during long flights. But the great news is there are proven ways to reduce the risk of developing it. Keep your fluids up, get up and wander the aisles as much as possible and wear compression socks or tights.
