If you're not prepared, airports and flying can be daunting. But there's no need to worry. Follow these tips and tricks and enjoy a pleasant start to your holiday in Blomkest.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- A plane trip can be easy if you pack the right stuff. Firstly, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as deodorant, toothpaste and a toothbrush, a clean pair of socks and a few magazines. Secondly, make room in your carry-on bag for your mobile phone, a charger, any medications and maybe a cosy neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, be sure to bring your passport, travel papers and some money.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- While the list of prohibited items differs between air carriers, the general guide to follow is nothing flammable, sharp or explosive. This includes things like box cutters, razor blades, aerosol cans and flares. Sporting equipment like ski poles, and objects that could injure passengers, such as pepper spray and guns, won't be allowed on board either.
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort should always be your priority when deciding what to wear on your flight. Consider your footwear carefully too, as swollen feet are quite common. Flat shoes which are slightly roomy are your best bet.
- Caused by sustained periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a serious condition that can affect passengers during long flights. But the good news is there are ways to lower your risk of developing it. Stay well hydrated, get up and wander the aisles wherever possible and wear compression socks to help improve your circulation.
