Wherever you're coming from, flying can be a seamless experience if you're prepared. We've made a list of essential travel tips that will help get your Malguenac escape started on the right note.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The secret to having an amazing travel experience is to be prepared. First up, the essentials: passport, boarding pass, bank cards and important medications. Next, bring items that'll help pass the time, like some electronic gadgets or a good book. It's also a wise idea to bring your chargers, a quality neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones. Last but not least, be sure to toss in toiletry items like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a spare change of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Put all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and conditioner in your checked baggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Sharp objects, like your precious pocket knife, and dangerous products which are flammable or explosive, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and matches, are also prohibited.
What to wear on a flight:
- The long, narrow aisles of an airplane are no fashion runway. Layer up with comfortable clothing and bring a sweater as it can get chilly in the cabin. Slightly roomy, flat shoes are also recommended.
- Unfortunately, one risk of flying long distances is developing DVT (deep vein thrombosis), a blood clot condition caused by extended periods of inactivity. To prevent this from happening, take every opportunity to wander around the cabin. Compression tights and socks are another easy way to help minimize this risk.
