  • A plane ride can be easy if you bring the right things. First things first, you'll need basic toiletry items, such as toothpaste, a toothbrush and some deodorant, a clean set of clothes and something to read. Next, find a spot in your hand luggage for your phone and charger, any vital medications and maybe a neck pillow as well. Last, but definitely not least, remember to bring your passport, travel docs and your bank cards.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Check carefully that you don't have a sharp object hiding in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other banned items include flammable or explosive products, such as fuel and fireworks, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

  • Your priority is to be as comfortable as you can. Pick slip-on footwear, dress in loose, breathable clothing and don't forget to take a sweater in case it gets chilly in the cabin.
  • Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clotting due to poor circulation, so do some gentle leg and foot exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks.
