We've pulled together all the info you need to make your flight a stress-free experience. Follow our tips and you'll be hightailing it through the airport and having a ball in Hideaway Bay in next to no time.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The trick to having a pain-free flight experience is to be prepared. First up, the essentials: passport, travel docs, credit cards and any vital medications. Next, bring on board items that'll help pass the time, like some electronic gadgets or a good book. It's also wise to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of headphones. And of course, don't forget to chuck in toiletry items like a toothbrush, facial wipes and a fresh set of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Check carefully that you don't have a Swiss Army knife hiding in your hand luggage. Other prohibited items include explosive or flammable goods, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and gels and liquids in containers larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).
What to wear on a flight:
- Your aim here is to make yourself as comfortable as you can. Layer yourself up in natural-fibre clothing and remember to pack a sweater in case it gets cool. Opt for a pair of well-fitting, flat shoes as your feet may swell during the journey. Leave the stilettos and chunky boots in your main luggage.
- Most travellers have heard about deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clot condition caused by reduced mobility or inactivity. There's lots you can do to reduce your risk. Wear compression socks, drink plenty of water and move your legs and feet. Do a few laps of the cabin or perform some simple exercises in your seat.
