Depending on where you're coming from, your flight to Raven could be completely painless or it could go on forever. We've compiled some tips that will help you start your next unforgettable escape on a positive note.What to pack in your hand luggage:
- The trick to having a pain-free flight experience is to pack ahead. So, let's start with the basics: passport, travel docs, bank cards and vital medications. Next, take on board items that'll help keep you busy, like some electronic devices or a thrilling novel. It's also a wise idea to bring your chargers, a neck pillow and a pair of earplugs. Finally, don't forget to pop in toiletry items like a toothbrush, deodorant and a clean set of clothes.
Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:
- Check carefully that you don't have a sharp object hiding in one of the zippers of your hand luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive goods, such as aerosol cans and fuel, and liquids and gels in containers with a volume of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).
What to wear on a flight:
- The best way to ensure a comfortable flight is as simple as the clothes you wear. Prepare for temperature changes by layering up. That way you'll stay nice and warm if the cabin gets chilly. Shoes like sandals and heels are best left in your checked suitcase. Instead, opt for flat, closed-toed footwear like sneakers. Your feet will appreciate it.
- Caused by sustained periods of immobility, DVT (deep vein thrombosis) is a blood clot condition that can affect some passengers during long flights. The great news is there are ways to reduce your risk of developing it. Keep your fluids up, wander around the cabin as much as possible and wear compression tights or socks.
