Depending on where you're coming from, your journey to Eads could be a piece of cake or it could drag on forever. We've put together some handy hints that will help you start your next great escape on a positive note. What to pack in your hand luggage:
- First things first, put in your passport, travel docs, credit cards and vital medications. Next, you'll need some entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy book and a laptop crammed with your favourite shows are good options. If you hope to catch more than just forty winks, a neck pillow and some earplugs will also come in handy. Finally, make room for a toothbrush and some facial wipes so you'll step off the plane feeling fresh and ready to go.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Make sure you don't have a sharp object lurking in one of the zippers of your carry-on luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable substances, such as fuel and fireworks, and liquids and gels in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 millilitres).
What to wear on a flight:
- Comfort should be your main priority when choosing what to wear on board. Loose clothing is a sensible option, as are flat, slightly roomy shoes.
- The result of lengthy periods of inactivity, deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a blood clotting condition that can affect passengers on long-haul flights. Reduce the risks by drinking water, keeping your legs and ankles moving and wearing compression socks or tights.
