Airplane Advice
By Leah Steenstra
Are you flying to your honeymoon destination? Here
are some tips on flying for the not-so-seasoned
traveler.
Stay Healthy
-
The canned air found in airplanes can dehydrate you.
Be sure to drink lots of water. Many people
agree that drinking water can also reduce the
effects of jetlag.
-
Alcohol consumed in the air is much more potent than
if it were consumed on the ground. If you don’t
have a high tolerance for it, stick to water
while you’re flying.
-
If you are traveling with a cold, reduce sinus pain by
taking a nasal spray.
Keep Comfortable
-
On your travel day, wear loose, cotton clothes to keep
you comfortable. In addition, dressing in layers
allows you to stay cool as temperatures increase
or decrease.
-
Bring gum to ease the pain that comes with popping
ears.
Be Smart
-
Be sure to identify your bags. However, do not put
your home address on the outside of your bag in
case burglars are looking for an easy location
to rob that week.
-
Pack your carry on with all the essentials, including
an extra set of clothes, just in case your
baggage is lost.
