We've rounded up all the info you need to make your flight a stress-free experience. Follow our insider tips and you'll be cruising through the airport and enjoying Hemne before you know it.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Firstly, and most importantly, pack in your passport, important documents, wallet and medications. Next, you'll want some entertainment to while away the time. A juicy novel and a laptop filled with your favorite shows are always good options. If you hope to take a short nap, a comfy neck pillow and a pair of noise-canceling headphones will also come in handy. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some facial wipes to ensure you touchdown looking fresh and raring to go.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids or gels in your carry-on bag larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by security. Sharp objects, like a pocket knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as flares, chemicals agents and poisons, are also restricted.
What to wear on a flight:
- Your goal here is to make yourself as comfortable as you can. Don layers of breathable clothing and remember to bring a cardigan in case you get cold. Always opt for flat, well-fitting shoes as it's possible that your feet and ankles will swell during the flight. Leave the stilettos and heavy boots in your main luggage.
- The result of sustained periods of immobility, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a condition that can affect some passengers on long-distance flights. The good news is there are proven ways to significantly reduce the risk of developing it. Drink plenty of water, get up and walk around the cabin as much as possible and wear compression socks to help improve your circulation.
