No matter where you're coming from, flying can be a pleasant experience if you've planned ahead. We've made a list of top travel tips that will get your Lyudinovo escape started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- It's simple — first, pack in your passport, travel docs, wallet and medications. Next, you'll want some extra in-flight entertainment to while away the hours. A juicy novel and a tablet crammed with your favourite movies are some fantastic options. If you intend to catch forty winks, a comfy neck pillow and some earplugs will also be useful. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some cleansing wipes so you'll hop off the plane feeling fresh and ready to go.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated. Sharp or pointed objects, like your beloved Swiss Army knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, bleaching agents and fireworks, are also banned.
What to wear on a flight:
- The long, narrow aisles of an airplane are no fashion runway. Don comfortable layers and pack a cardigan as it tends to get cool inside the cabin during longer flights. Slightly roomy, flat shoes are also a wise idea.
- Unfortunately, one risk of flying long distances is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by prolonged periods of inactivity. To avoid this, make the most of every opportunity to wander around the cabin. Compression socks and tights are another great idea to help lower your risk.
