Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Bodal could be completely stress-free or it could drag on forever. Here are some handy hints that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on the right foot.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Flying can be a stress-free experience if you carry the right things. First of all you'll need basic toiletries, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a clean pair of socks and a magazine or two. Next, make room in your hand luggage for your phone, tablet and chargers, any daily medications and maybe a proper neck pillow too. Lastly, don't forget to take your passport, travel documents and some money.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Squeeze all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Sharp objects, like your treasured Swiss Army knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and gasoline, are also not allowed.
What to wear on a flight:
- Your goal here is to be as comfortable as possible. Dress in loose, natural fibers and take a pullover just in case you get chilly. Always opt for well-fitting, flat shoes as your feet may swell during the journey. Leave the stilettos and heavy hiking boots in your main luggage.
- Most of us have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by long periods of sitting. There's plenty you can do to minimize your risk. Don a pair of compression socks, drink plenty of water and move your legs and feet. Do a few laps of the cabin or try out some exercises in your seat.
