We've rounded up all the info you need to make your journey a stress-free experience. Follow our tips and you'll be cruising through airport security and enjoying Invermoriston in no time flat. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- Air travel can be a cruisy experience if you carry the right gear. Firstly, you'll want some toiletry items, such as toothpaste, a toothbrush and some deodorant, a spare set of clothes and a good novel. Next, find a spot in your carry-on bag for your phone, tablet and chargers, any vital medications and maybe a neck pillow too. Lastly, and most importantly, remember to bring your passport, travel docs and some cash.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Pack all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hair gel 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 or pointed objects, like your treasured pocket knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and matches, are also prohibited.
What to wear on a flight:
- Your top priority is to be as comfortable as you can. Go for a pair of flat, closed-toe shoes, dress in loose, breathable clothing and don't forget to bring a sweater in case you get cold in the cabin.
- Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a potential risk on long-haul flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to poor circulation and inactivity, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression socks or tights.
