Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Woodhouse Eaves could be no sweat at all or it could go on forever. We've pulled together some handy tips that will help you start your unforgettable escape on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- A plane trip can be a stress-free experience if you carry the right stuff. Firstly, you'll need toiletry items, such as a toothbrush and hairbrush, a clean set of clothes and a good novel. Secondly, find room in your bag for your mobile phone, a charger, medications and maybe a comfy neck pillow too. Last, but definitely not least, remember to bring your passport, travel documents and your credit cards.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Pack all your full-sized bottles of hair gel and hairspray in your checked luggage. Any liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) won't be allowed on. Sharp objects, like your beloved Swiss Army knife, and products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, flares and strong acids, are also banned.
What to wear on a flight:
- The aisles of your aircraft are no fashion runway. Wear comfortable clothes and take a cardigan as it can get chilly in the cabin. Closed-toed, flat shoes are always a good idea too.
- A serious condition by the name of DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a risk on long-haul flights. It results from blood clotting due to poor circulation and inactivity. Doing leg and foot exercises in your seat is a great way to prevent this from occurring. Wearing a quality pair of compression socks also helps reduce your risk.
