Temperature changes are inevitable on a flight, which makes wearing layers necessary so that you can adjust them according to how you feel at different times. A cardigan in a light and soft knit would be a better choice than, say, a denim jacket that is thick and heavy, and can also be unwieldy to carry about. Pull-on sweaters may be inconvenient to pop on and remove, especially in the space constraints of an economy class seat.
5. UNDERWIRE BRAS AND CONSTRICTING UNDERWEAR
If you’ve ever cluelessly worn an underwire bra on a long-haul or red-eye flight, you’d know how it can really test one’s endurance of discomfort. It makes sense, then, to wear a wireless bra or a slip-on bra that isn’t tight-fitting – both options can provide light but adequate coverage and support without irritating the skin around your chest.
This is no occasion for putting on shapewear, of course, unless you can bear with feeling like your blood circulation has been cut off. Don’t forget that the body tends to bloat or swell on a flight since we may be dealing with water retention or gas from not moving around much – what may feel acceptable on a normal day may not be so when you’re on a plane. Put on your comfiest skivvies, instead, for an easier time.
5. CHUNKY METAL ACCESSORIES
Belts with bulky metal buckles can set off metal detectors at security check, so it’s best to pick a lighter version or go without one, since a belt can also make sitting for long periods of time extremely uncomfortable.
